PENGARUH TERAPI RELAKSASI NAPAS DALAM (DEEP BREATHING) TERHADAP PERUBAHAN TEKANAN DARAH PADA PENDERITA HIPERTENSI DI PUSKESMAS KOTA WILAYAH SELATAN KOTA KEDIRI
Abstract: Hypertension is a
result of blood circulation problem. If a patient does not get proper treatment
her/his condition will be worse. Therefore the number of morbidity and
mortality will progressively increase and health problem in society will be
hard improved. The objective of this research was to analyze the influence deep
breathing relaxation therapy toward the change of blood pressure on
hypertension’s patient at Puskesmas Kota Wilayah Selatan Kota Kediri.
The design of this research was quasy experiment non equivalent control
group design. Population was the hypertension’s patient at Puskesmas Kota
Wilayah Selatan Kota Kediri. The samples were 44 respondents based on inclusion
and exclusion criterion on purposive sampling. The independent variable was deep
breathing relaxation therapy and the dependent variable was blood pressure. The
data was collected using mercurial sphygmomanometer. It was analyzed using
paired sample t test and independent samples t test with significant level α
< 0.05.
The result showed that systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood
pressure of control group did not significantly change (p systolic=0,665 and p
diastolic=0.825), while the blood pressure of experiment group significantly
decrease (p systolic=0.000) and p diastolic=0.000). It was proved by the
difference between experiment group and control group (p systolic=0.000) and p
diastolic=0.000). Practicing deep breathing relaxation therapy for 15 minutes
can decrease systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure. The different
mean of systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure decrease were 9.00
mmHg and 10.00 mmHg. The different mean of systolic blood pressure decrease on
experiment group was 50 times than the result in control group, while the
different mean of diastolic blood pressure experiment group was 111.11 times
than the result in control group.
The conclusion there was significant influence of deep breathing
relaxation therapy toward the change of blood pressure.
