Abstract

Introduction: Hypertension is a condition in which systolic blood pressure is more than 140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure is more than 90 mmHg. Hypertension is called a silent killer, so in any situation when blood pressure increases drastically it can cause death. The number of hypertension patients in Gresik Regency hospitals is 10,375 people. The intervention designed to reduce hypertension is Isometric Hangdrip Exercise, which functions to reduce cardiovascular reactivity to psychological factors, so that it can reduce systolic blood pressure by about 7 mmHg and diastolic by about 5 mmHg.This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Isometric Handgrip Exercise on reducing systolic and diastolic blood pressure in hypertensive patients at the Kebomas Health Center.Method: The design of this study is Pre-ExperimentalDesign. This type of research is a quantitative research with the One Group Pretest –Posttest approach. The population in this study is 227 people with hypertension in the Kebomas Health Center area aged46 –65 years. Sampling was carried out using the Purposive Sampling method with a sample of 38 people.Results: The results of the Wilcoxon statistical test showed that the Systolic blood pressure significantly decreased after intervention (p < 0.001) and Diastolic blood pressure significantly decreased after intervention (p < 0.05). This shows significant results. Isometric Handgrip Exercise performed for 5 consecutive days can reduce systolic blood pressure by 13 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure by 8 mmHg.Conclusion: There is an effect of Isometric Handgrip Exercise on the reduction of blood pressure in hypertensive patients at the Kebomas Health Center.
