Efektivitas Isometric Handgrip Exercise dalam Menurunkan Tekanan Darah pada Pasien Hipertensi

Abstract

Abstract. Background: Hypertension has a significant impact on public health and has become a major health care burden worldwide. One non-pharmacological therapy that can be given to reduce blood pressure in hypertensive patients is Isometric Handgrip Exercise exercise therapy. This therapy has been shown to reduce blood pressure which is almost the same as intense aerobic exercise. This literature review aims to analyze the effects of the application of Isometric Handgrip Exercise in reducing blood pressure in hypertensive patients. Method: This research explores quantitative evidence published in electronic databases such as Pubmed, and Google Scholar. Using a search strategy, we identified 16 articles that were potentially and relevant to the research objectives, and 4 articles were included in the final analysis. Results: We could see a significant effect on systolic and diastolic blood pressure reduction in the group given the Isometric Handgrip Exercise intervention compared with the control group. Conclusion: Research results from several articles in this review literature show that Isometric Handgrip Exercise exercises are proven to be effective in reducing blood pressure in hypertensive patients.

Changes of Blood Pressure in Hypertension Patients Through Isometric Handgrip Exercise

“…The average decrease in systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in the intervention group was 7.48 ± 0.06 mmHg and 6.41 ± 1.01 mmHg, respectively, and significantly increased systolic blood pressure, diastolic and pulse rate in 5 minutes after exercise at 30% MVC with mean values of 8.60 ± 0.20 mmHg, 7.33 ± 0.03 mmHg, and 8.24 ± 0.20 beats/min. This is in line with the research of Zainuddin & Labdullah (2020) which showed that the Isometric Handgrip Exercise was proven to be effective in reducing blood pressure in hypertensive patients. In a study conducted by Sandhu et al, (2014) the results showed that the isometric handgrip exercise decreased resting heart rate and arterial pressure in normotensive individuals.…”

“…The results of research conducted by Zainuddin & Labdullah (2020) show that several literature review articles show that the Isometric Handgrip Exercise is proven to be effective in reducing blood pressure in hypertensive patients. Handgrip isometric exercise can reduce cardiovascular reactivity to psychophysiological stressors in people suffering from hypertension (Badrov et al, 2013).…”

The Effect of Drug Counseling on Hypertension Patient's Compliance in a Hospital in Medan City

“…Selanjutnya pada pengujian signfikansi parsial ditemukan bahwa nilai sig 0.01 < 0.05 sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa konseling berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kepatuhan (13).…”

“…Berdasarkan hasil pengujian ditemukan bahwa mayoritas responden pada penelitian ini berusia 59-67 tahun yang berjumlah 24 orang atau 61.5%, selanjutnya terdapat 9 orang atau 23.1% yang berusia 68-76 tahun, 5 orang atau 12.8% yang berusia 50-58 tahun dan 1 orang atau 2.6% yang berusia lebih dari 76 tahun(13). Semakin tinggi umur seseorang atau semakin tua seseorang maka akan semakin tinggi terkena risiko hipertensi.…”

Pengaruh Latihan Isometric Handgrip Exercise Terhadap Penurunan Tekanan Darah Pada Penderita Hipertensi

“…Peningkatan otot yang terlatih dan peningkatan airan pembuluh darah akan mempertahankan kemampuan otot yang meningkat, mempertahankan metabolisme aerobic, membangkitkan respon simpatik yang lebih kecil sehingga tekanan darah lebih sedikit tidak meningkat. Saat latihan berlangsung, reflek komereseptor akan menurunkan aktivitas saraf simpatik sehingga melemahnya respon saraf simpatik akan berakibat penurunan tekanan darah istirahat (Zainuddin & Labdullah, 2020). Usia >18 tahun keatas yang mengalami tekanan darah tinggi dapat terjadi dari beberapa faktor.…”
