“…Hipertensi dapat disebabkan oleh peningkatan kinerja jantung dalam memompa darah agar dapat memenuhi kebutuhan oksigen dan nutrisi tubuh. Hipertensi yang tidak segera ditangani dapat mengganggu kinerja organ lain seperti jantung dan ginjal (Kementerian Kesehatan RI, 2013;Rivera, 2019). Dari 2013 hingga 2018, prevalensi hipertensi di Indonesia terus mengalami peningkatan.…”

Hypertension is known as the silent killer. Hypertension can be caused by non-modifi able factor such as gender and modifi able factor such as smoking habit and physical activity. Purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between gender, smoking habit, and physical activity with hypertension among offi ce employees in Provincial Public Health Offi ce of Central Java. This study used case control design. This case control study included 46 offi ce employee, divided into 23 cases and 23 controls who were taken using simple random sampling. Data were collected by interview, fi lling IPAQ questionnaire, and blood pressure measurement. Data were analyzed using Chi-Square test. This study revealed that most of the employee are woman (54,3%), did not smoking (73,9%), and had a high physical activity level (65,2%). There was a signifi cant relationship between gender (p value=0.003, OR=8.229; 95% CI:2.175-31.132) and smoking habit (p value=0.019, OR=8.077; 95% CI=1.523-42.834) with hypertension. Whereas physical activity (p=0,122) was not in a signifi cant relationship with hypertension. It is concluded that male smoking employees tend to have hypertension. It is recommended for employees to stop smoking and increasing physical activity to reduce the risk of hypertension.

“…This helps explain why the majority of persons with HTN are undiagnosed and untreated (Whelton et al, 2018). Although blood pressure (BP) control has improved over the past 20 years, it remains a challenge for both patients and clinicians (Carter, 2018; Rivera et al, 2019) because only 50% will achieve and maintain BP control of <140/90 mm Hg (Tereshchenko et al, 2017). Poorly controlled HTN carries with it significant morbidity and can lead to end-organ damage, such as heart attack, heart failure, stroke, and kidney disease.…”

“…By 2030, experts estimate that the annual cost of HTN will approach 200 billion dollars (Kirkland et al, 2018). Evidence suggests that a combination of lifestyle modifications and pharmacologic interventions is the optimal treatment strategy (Rivera et al, 2019). However, ever-increasing clinician time constraints, breadth of treatment options, patient comorbidities, and educational needs may affect the ability to effectively provide comprehensive HTN care (Braam et al, 2017).…”

Hypertension (HTN) affects over one third of adults in the United States. Blood pressure (BP) management and patient education are provided by physicians, advanced practice clinicians, pharmacists, and nurses. In the traditional medical/clinic model, physicians have provided and directed HTN care. However, advanced practice nurses and pharmacists are also well trained and positioned to manage HTN. The purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility of an HTN clinic, led by a nurse practitioner (NP) and PharmD, specifically analyzing if targeted HTN can be achieved in this setting. Registry data were used to analyze the initial and the most recent visit BP levels in patients who were seen in an NP/PharmD-led HTN clinic. Measures of central tendency and differences between initial and most recent visit were also compared. A total of 46 patients were included in this analysis. Data showed that there was no statistically significant difference in the first visit (144/86) and the most recent visit (138/84) BP (p = .26), but that there was a clinical trend in decreasing BP as well as narrowing of BP ranges and interquartile ranges between visit. The NP/PharmD-led clinic is feasible and can help lower BP and narrow ranges toward targeted BP.
