Background: Hemoglobin is a protein in erythrocytes. Anemia in the elderly often goes unnoticed. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is also considered as one of the complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). This study aims to determine hemoglobin levels after acupressure therapy of the elderly at Panti Griya Sehat Bahagia.Methods: The design of this study used an experimental research design in the form of two groups: pretest-posttest design. The sample in this study were all elderly in Panti Griya Sehat Bahagia. The study was conducted in September 2022 at Panti Griya Sehat Bahagia, Karanganyar Regency. The sampling technique was total sampling of 34 subjects in this research. Data collected is the primary data by recording and evaluating the results of the action in this research. Statistical test using univariate analysis and bivariate analysis by using t test.Results: There were differences in hemoglobin levels before and after acupressure therapy in the elderly at Panti Griya Sehat Bahagia (p<0.001).Conclusion: There is an average increase in hemoglobin levels between before and after acupressure therapy in the elderly at Panti Griya Sehat Bahagia.

“…Sejalan dengan penelitian lain memberikan terapi akupresur pada pasien hipertensi dengan durasi 10 menit, peneliti melakukan sebanyak 3 kali dengan jarak tiap 2 hari [10]. Penelitian lain yang juga memberikan tindakan akupresur selama 30 menit dengan pemberian sebanyak 1 kali hasil dari penelitian menunjukkan terapi yang diberikan memiliki pengaruh yang signifikan secara statistik pada tekanan darah dengan p = 0,000 [11].…”

Hypertension is a non-communicable disease which is a serious health problem. The number of hypertension cases in Southeast Sulawesi province in 2018 was 54,127 people (33.62%). In the city of Baubau, the prevalence of hypertension was 3,606 cases in 2018. The research objective is to determine the effectiveness of using the prototype acupressure model as tool therapy based Arduino UNO on blood pressure in hypertensive patients grade I. The research used is Research and Development development prototype acupressure model as tool therapy based Arduino UNO. Test the effectiveness of the model with true eksperiment pretest and posttest with control group design with 30 respondents divided into 2 groups by technique random sampling. Intervention group with prototype acupressure for 4 sessions for 2 weeks duration of 20 minutes continued to consume antihypertensives and the control group received standard treatment of taking antihypertensive drugs. The systolic blood pressure in the intervention group experienced a significant decrease of 13.49%, while that of the control group was 8.48%. The mean of the intervention group after treatment was 150.65 to 130.32 mmHg (p=0.000) while the control group averaged 149.33 to 136.67 mmHg (p=0.001). The diastolic blood pressure decreased by 16.44% while the control group was 5.52%. The mean of the intervention group after treatment was 101.33 to 84.67 mmHg (p=0.000), while the control group averaged 96.67mmHg to 91.33mmHg (p=0,005). Intervention prototype acupressure model as tool therapy based Arduino UNO effective reducing blood pressure in hypertensive patients grade I.

Background: Anemia or known by the public as anemia in the elderly often occurs unknowingly. The prevalence of anemia in Indonesia in the elderly is 42.3%. Acupressure utilizes stimulation on the body's acupuncture points, ears and scalp to affect the flow of the body's bioenergy called qi as one of traditional medicine. Perceptions of the use of traditional medicine are of three types: holding belief in conventional medicine, doubting conventional medicine, and holding belief in both traditional medicine and conventional medicine. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors associated with the perception of acupressure as a prevention of anemia in the elderly at nursing homes. Subjects dan Method: This study was a cross-sectional study in January 2023. The sample used was 110 elderly people in nursing homes in the Surakarta area, selected using a purposive random sampling technique. The dependent variable of this research is the perception of acupressure as prevention of anemia. The independent variables in this study were education of the elderly, knowledge of acupressure, history of anemia, safety of acupressure and willingness to do acupressure. Data collected by questionnaire. Data analysis used multiple logistic regression with Stata 13. Results: Factors related to positive perceptions of acupressure as prevention of anemia in the elderly were higher education in the elderly (OR= 12.77; 95% CI= 1.842 to 88.74; p=0.010), high knowledge about acupressure (OR= 13.05; 95% CI= 2.22 to 76.78; p=0.004), had a history of anemia (OR= 13.50; 95% CI= 2.15 to 84.59; p=0.005), safety of acupressure (OR= 32.85; 95% CI= 4.96 to 217.55; p<0.001), and willingness performed acupressure (OR= 11.03; 95% CI= 1.97 to 61.71; p=0.006). Conclusion:Factors related to the perception of acupressure as prevention of anemia in the elderly are the elderly's higher education, high knowledge of acupressure, history of anemia, safety of acupressure, and willingness to do acupressure.
