“…[31]. However, other studies show different things, that the level of knowledge does not affect a person's level of physical activity [32]. Some studies show physical exercise adherence is influenced by lower health literacy levels and poor living conditions.…”

BACKGROUND: Hypertension contributes significantly to the increase in cardiovascular disease cases, especially in the elderly. Knowledge and self-care compliance are needed, but in reality, awareness and regularity of control are still lacking in hypertensive patients in urban communities. AIM: The aim of the study was to determine the relationship of knowledge with self-care and get an overview of existing knowledge and self-care in the elderly with hypertension. METHODS: This is a quantitative and cross-sectional design recruited 383 hypertensive patients in three community health centers. Sampling with proportional random sampling from three health centers that have the highest cases of hypertension in the city of Padang. Knowledge instrument using hypertension knowledge-level scale. Moreover, hypertension self-care adherence using hypertension self-care activity level effects. Analysis using Chi-square test RESULTS: The sample of this study was 383 respondents. About 66.3% are women, 88.3% have low education, and 86.9% do not work. 51.2% had duration of hypertension 0–5 years and the average age was 60.89 ± 8.072 years. About 94.8% of respondents have poor knowledge. Self-care practice showed 64% non-adherence to medication, 88.5% non-adherence to the DASH diet, and 82.5% non-adherence to weight management. However, 78.6% indicated non-smoking adherence and 100% alcohol avoidance adherence. There was a relationship between knowledge and adherence to weight management (p=0.000; odds ratio [OR] 6.7 (95% confidence interval [CI] for Exp B; 2.65–16.91)) and physical activity (p=0.000; OR 14.99 (95% CI for Exp B; 5.65–39.79)). CONCLUSION: Providing comprehensive and repeated health education for the elderly with hypertension can increase their knowledge. The involvement of patients and families is needed to improve self-care behavior.

“…As SAH has multiple causes, it is very difficult to establish the role of each element involved in the development of this condition. Santos and colleagues, 4 in their article published in the current issue, discuss the interrelationship between regular exercise and patient knowledge of the disease and provide important information, especially given the scarcity of studies on this subject. Burini et al, 5 evaluated the effect of physical exercise alone (without medication or special diet) in overweight men with hypertension.…”

“…Also, some of these factors are influenced by geographic, socioeconomic and cultural factors, and huge differences can thus be found between different populations. 4,10 The identification of hypertensive patients in the early stages of the disease may provide a good opportunity to strongly advocate the practice of physical activity, prescribed by a multidisciplinary team. The simple prescription of physical exercise, even when accompanied by audiovisual or printed educational material, has been shown to be insufficiently convincing and hence ineffective for most patients.…”

Systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) is a chronic condition that is highly prevalent worldwide. It occurs without symptoms in most individuals and represents the main modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The adoption of behaviors that do not involve medication, such as changes in lifestyle and regular practice of physical exercise, along with strict adherence to prescribed medication, is a major challenge in the treatment of this disorder. 1,2

Hipertensi, atau tekanan darah tinggi, merupakan kondisi kronis di mana tekanan darah pada dinding arteri (pembuluh darah bersih) meningkat. Kondisi ini dikenal sebagai "pembunuh diam-diam" karena jarang menunjukkan gejala yang jelas. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui distribusi frekuensi faktor-faktor yang berhubungan dengan terjadinya hipertensi di RSU Wulan Windy Medan pada tahun 2023. Berdasarkan hasil analisis menggunakan uji Chi-Square, penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa RSU Wulan Windy Medan memperoleh nilai signifikan pada tingkat pengetahuan sebesar 0,001. Hal ini menunjukkan adanya hubungan antara tingkat pengetahuan dengan terjadinya hipertensi. Hipotesis nol (Ho) ditolak, dan hipotesis alternatif (Ha) diterima. Selain itu, hasil aktivitas juga memperlihatkan nilai p-value sebesar 0,029 dengan Ha diterima, menunjukkan adanya hubungan yang signifikan antara aktivitas dan terjadinya hipertensi. Begitu pula dengan perilaku merokok, di mana nilai p-value sebesar 0,012 dengan Ha diterima, menunjukkan hubungan yang signifikan antara merokok dan terjadinya hipertensi. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa secara statistik terdapat hubungan antara tingkat pengetahuan, aktivitas, dan merokok dengan terjadinya hipertensi di RSU Wulan Windy Medan.
