Abstract

Hypertension in the elderly is a common problem that is often found. Many factors affect hypertension in the elderly, so it is necessary to empower them elderly. The purpose of this empowerment to control the blood pressure of the elderly through progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) techniques. The method used is counselling and exercise demonstration, which consists of 3 main activities: screening, PMR technique training, and activity evaluation. The empowerment was attended by nine elderly at UPT PSTW Wisma Cempaka Jember. The evaluation of activities is to measure blood pressure with a stethoscope and sphygmomanometer. Wilcoxon statistical test was used to determine changes in blood pressure before and after PMR intervention. The elderly are 100% male, 55.6% are 60-70 years old, 44.4% live in an orphanage for 1-5 years, and 66.7% are from outside Jember and have itching 44.4%. The p-value was 0.02<0.05 in systole, which means there was a difference before and after PMR, and the p-value was 0.705>0.05 in diastole, which means there was no difference in blood pressure after PMR. PMR focuses on maintaining a relaxed state that can secrete CRH (Corticotropin-releasing Hormone) and ACTH (Adrenocorticotropic releasing hormone) so that adrenaline and non-adrenaline secretion decrease, which has an impact on heart contraction activity and decreased blood pressure. Elderly empowerment with progressive muscle relaxation can control blood pressure, specifically systolic, after one week of exercise. This exercise must be included in the PSTW exercise program, which can be done regularly to control blood pressure.

Abstract

The elderly are at higher risk of developing various degenerative diseases. Hypertension is often called the "Silent Killer", which can unwittingly cause death due to complications without proper treatment. Therefore, hypertension health education is expected to increase knowledge of the elderly, and hypertension exercise training can help reduce complications. This community service program aims to increase the elderly's knowledge of hypertension and be able to apply the hypertension exercise method at Wisma Cempaka UPT PSTW Jember. The community service method uses a gerontic nursing care approach which includes various stages, namely an initial survey related to hypertension through blood pressure checks in the elderly, then carrying out hypertension counseling with counseling methods and interactive discussions, then continuing with training on how to apply hypertension exercise by students and a joint demonstration with the Wisma elderly. Cempaka UPT PSTW Jember. The results of this activity indicate an increase in knowledge among the elderly regarding hypertension from 42% to 75% at the end of the activity. The average decrease in elderly blood pressure is ten mmHg in systolic and five mmHg in diastole after exercise hypertension for three consecutive days. This proves the importance of health education and training in the form of hypertension exercise to be carried out continuously in controlling blood pressure and minimizing the risk of hypertension complications in the elderly. Therefore, monitoring of exercise training and sustainable hypertension health education is expected to be continued regularly to maintain the health of the elderly.
