Abstract

Hypertension and kidney failure are two types of diseases related to kidney health. Hypertension or high blood pressure can cause damage to the kidneys, while kidney failure is a condition in which the kidneys cannot function properly to build up metabolic waste and fluids from the body. Hypertension can cause damage to the small blood vessels in the kidneys, so that the kidneys cannot excrete waste properly. As a result, harmful substances can accumulate in the body and cause organ damage. If hypertension cannot be controlled properly, it can cause kidney damage and eventually lead to kidney failure. Failure is a kidney condition in which the kidneys cannot function properly to remove metabolic wastes and fluids from the body. Kidney failure can occur for a variety of reasons, including untreated hypertension, diabetes, congenital kidney disease, and use of certain medications. If left untreated, kidney failure can lead to accumulation of waste in the body and serious complications such as anemia, osteoporosis, heart disease and even death. Treatment of hypertension and kidney failure usually involves medication and lifestyle changes. Treatment includes the use of drugs prescribed by a doctor and the management of complications that may occur. Lifestyle changes include managing a healthy diet, reducing salt and fat consumption, exercising regularly, avoiding smoking, and managing stress. Early detection is very important in the management of hypertension and kidney failure. Regular blood pressure checks, urine tests to detect protein in the urine, and blood tests to detect levels of creatinine, blood glucose, and cholesterol in the blood can help detect risks and early symptoms of kidney disease.

Abstract

: Counseling and screening anxiety in adolescents is an important activity in supporting adolescent mental health. Counseling activities aim to provide relevant understanding and information about anxiety in adolescents, including definitions, causes, impacts, and effective management strategies. Through interactive methods, participants are given the opportunity to share experiences and gain a better understanding of anxiety. Meanwhile, anxiety screening in adolescents aims to early detect adolescents who may experience anxiety. Using structured questions and questionnaires, mental health professionals can evaluate adolescents' anxiety levels and direct them to appropriate sources of help. Early detection of anxiety allows adolescents to get appropriate interventions and prevent further negative impacts. Counseling activities and anxiety screening in adolescents have significant benefits. Education helps reduce the stigma associated with anxiety and provides youth with the knowledge and skills to recognize and deal with anxiety in healthy ways. Anxiety screening allows teens to get help earlier and prevent anxiety from getting worse. By actively involving adolescents in counseling and screening activities, they can feel supported and gain a better understanding of anxiety. It is hoped that through these activities, youth can develop positive stress management skills, improve mental well-being, and live a more balanced and productive teenage years.
