Relationship between Sleep Quality and Blood Pressure of the Indonesian Christian University Security Officer Unit in 2022

Abstract

Blood pressure is the primary arterial pressure in the systemic circulation measured in millimeters of mercury. Blood pressure is divided into systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure. Blood pressure is very volatile and is affected by many activities. One factor affecting blood pressure is sleep quality; several population-based cohort studies say poor sleep quality can increase blood pressure. This study aimed to determine the relationship between sleep quality and blood pressure in the security guard unit (SATPAM) in the Indonesian Christian University area. The method used is an analytical observational and uses a cross-sectional. The data collection technique used primary data obtained through blood pressure measurements at the Security Officer Unit and a questionnaire from July 18 - July 23, 2022, and obtained a sample of 54 respondents. The results showed that most respondents were aged 26-35 years (40.7%), most respondents were male (96.3%), and respondents with poor sleep quality were 39 people (72.7%). Statistical test Pearson Correlation showed no correlation between sleep quality and systolic and diastolic blood pressure at night or in the morning (p>0.05). This study concludes that there is no correlation between sleep quality and blood pressure of the Indonesian Christian University Security Officer Unit.
