Description

Introduction: Hypertension remains one of the most prevalent non-
communicable diseases worldwide, including in Indonesia. One strategy to

improve self-care behavior in hypertensive patients is through education.
This study aims to systematically review the effectiveness of various
educational interventions in enhancing self-care behavior among
hypertensive patients.
Methods: This study employed the PRISMA Flowchart for article selection
across three databases—ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Google Scholar—
with inclusion criteria limited to articles published between 2021 and
2025. Of 394 initially identified articles, 15 met the inclusion criteria after
PRISMA-based screening.
Results: The review analyzed 15 studies comprising diverse educational
interventions, including group-based education sessions, video-assisted
learning, digital and mobile health (mHealth) tools, individualized
counseling, and community-based programs. These interventions
significantly improved key aspects of self-care, such as medication
adherence, dietary regulation, physical activity, stress management, and
regular blood pressure monitoring.
Conclusion: This systematic review demonstrates that a wide range of
educational interventions effectively enhance self-care behaviors among
hypertensive patients. Tailoring interventions to patient needs and
utilizing technology may further improve outcomes. These findings
underscore the importance of incorporating structured education into
hypertension management strategies.
