“…It is similar to a previous study, which revealed that nonadherence to medication because of the use of traditional medicine is one of the barriers in hypertension management (Gebrezgi et al, 2017). It is undeniable that people in Indonesia not only believe in conventional medicine (Ritonga et al, 2017) but also in shaman for the medication (Sherliawati, 2014). It is in line with a study in rural Yogyakarta, Indonesia, which also found that the patients with hypertension tend to have the preference to manage hypertension on their own, especially to use traditional or alternative medicines and herbs, such as cucumber, avocado leaves (Rahmawati & Bajorek, 2018), aloe vera (Yuliawati et al, 2021, celery leaves (Isnainy et al, 2021), cupping therapy (Darmawan et al, 2017), acupuncture (Hidayah et al, 2021), and others to replace the prescribed medication.…”

Background: The Government of Indonesia has provided a Chronic Disease Management Program, better known as PROLANIS, to reduce the incidence of hypertension; however, the prevalence of hypertension remains high in the community, especially in Belitung, Indonesia, which warrants further investigation. One of the strategies to decrease the number of hypertensions is by addressing barriers and challenges in hypertension management according to patients’ points of view, which has become a lack of focus in previous studies.Purpose: This study aimed to explore the barriers and challenges of patients in managing hypertension in Belitung, Indonesia.Methods: This research employed a qualitative descriptive study design with 20 hypertensive patients who had access to the PROLANIS program in public health centers. Focus group discussions were conducted for data collection. The content analysis was used for data analysis.Results: Six themes were developed from the data, including (1) Dietary habits: the role of salt, (2) Nonadherence to medication due to the use of traditional medicine, (3) Shopping habit on nonprescription medication, (4) Confusion of anti-hypertensive drugs, (5) Barriers to physical exercise, and (6) Health monitoring and education.Conclusion: This study serves as an input for nurses and healthcare providers to improve the PROLANIS program, especially in hypertension management, as well as to develop new nursing interventions according to the barriers and challenges.

“…Herrera et al [7] found that hypertensive patients who drank 10 grams of HS petals daily could control mild to moderate hypertension as effectively as captopril. Similarly, Nikmah et al [24] suggested that the combination of antihypertensive medicines and HS petals could help the healing process more quickly. As we have stated above, HS is rich in phenolic acids and anthocyanins (esp.…”

As a traditional edible beverage and medicinal application for high-pressure blood treatment with no side effects, Hibiscus sabdariffa L. (HS) has high prospect to be nutraceuticals as diet additive for anti-hypertension. The anti-hypertension effect of HS has also been scientific validated recently especially in diabetic patient and post-partum mothers. In this paper, we reviewed up-to-date mechanisms found for the anti-hypertensive effect of HS extracts. Those included the inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzymes (ACE) activity, diuretic effect, endothelium-derived nitric oxide-cGMP-relaxant pathway and inhibition of calcium (Ca2+)-influx into vascular smooth muscle cells, cholinergic and/or histaminergic mechanisms, reduction in the diffusion distance between capillaries and myocytes as well as new vessel formation. Phenolic acids, anthocyanins (e.g. cyanidin-3-sambubioside and delphinidin-3-sambubioside) and anthocyanin metabolites probably contribute mostly to the hypotensive activity., 0 Web of Conferences https://doi.org/10.

The postpartum period is a time after the placenta is born until 40 days later, during this period there is a process of returning the physical condition of the mother after conceiving and giving birth. In the process of returning this physical condition requires more attention because there is a possibility of upcoming problems such as bleeding, infection, breastfeeding disorders, vascular disorders, and psychological. There have been several efforts made to support the improvement of postpartum maternal health, both using professional care and through traditional treatments such as the use of herbs. The purpose of this study was to identify the benefits of herbal medicines and their effectiveness in improving mothers' health in the puerperium. This study used a literature review approach through search in the Google Scholar, EBSCO, and Proquest databases with keywords: herbal, post-partum, and health promotion. In this study, 12 journals were obtained regarding the use of herbs used by women in the puerperium period to improve their health. Herbs used to improve maternal health include: purple sweet potato leaves, katuk leaves, turmeric, lempuyang, tamarind, green bean extract, black meeting, aloe vera, kalendula flowers, binahong leaves, rosella flowers, bitter orange, and lavender. The use of this herb serves to help repair reproductive organs to recover as before pregnancy.
