Description Of Suffering Duration, Self-Care Behavior, And Grade In Hypertension Patients
Subject
duration of suffering, grades,hypertension, self-care behavior
Description
Background: Hypertension is often called "the silent killer"
because it often goes unnoticed. The patient does not know that
he has hypertension but then finds himself having complications
from hypertension such as heart disease, stroke, kidney disease,
blood vessel disease, to nervous disorders. Therefore, it is
necessary to measure the level of self-care behavior using a
behavior scale to anticipate the self-care behavior that is
usually carried out by hypertensive patients.
Methods: This was an observational study with suffering
duration, self-care behavior, and hypertension grade as
independent variables. The number of samples used was 88,
and the sampling technique used was random sampling. The
instrument used in this study was a questionnaire using the
Hypertension Self-Care Profile (HBP-SCP) Behavior Scale
questionnaire, which consisted of 20 statements using
descriptive analysis.
Results: The results of univariate analysis of most of the
patients aged 46-55 years (60.2%), female (57%), with a
history of the last education level of elementary school (30%),
family income per month of 2,000,000.00-4,000,000,00
(54.5%), duration of hypertension with short duration of 1-5
years (69%), self-care behavior in the moderate category
(68%), and the majority were in grade 1 (48%).
Conclusion: Most respondents with a duration of illness of 1–5 years apply self-care behaviors in the moderate category and are in the Garde 1 hypertension degree category at the Sultan Agung Hospital Semarang Polyclinic in 2022.
