- Depression is a common mental disorder in the elderly, a pathological process and not the normal way because of age. Patients with coronary heart disease for each increase in severity of depressive symptoms independently increased 14% plasma endothelin-1 (ET-1). Diseases associated with dysregulation of endothelin: arterial hypertension, heart failure, atherosclerosis, kidney disease, even lead to cancer. Latihan Pasrah Diri (LPD) is a mind body interventions to evoke relaxation response that is expected to improve the symptoms of depression. In the present time, there are no study that show the effect of LPD on plasma ET-1 level in the elderly with depressive symptoms. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the LPD can decrease plasma ET-1 level in the elderly with depressive symptoms. This is a quasi-experimental research design. sampling procces was done by consecutive sampling. The subjects is elderly in the district of Klaten, Central Java, who visited the Posyandu (community health service) and meet the inclusion criteria on August-December 2012. Effect of LPD on plasma ET-1 level in the elderly were statistically assessed by Mann Whitney test. Differences are considered significant if P <0.05 with 95% confidence interval. Mean plasma ET-1 after LPD increases 0.37 ± 0.42 pg/mL from baseline in the LPD group and increases 0.41 ± 0.39 pg/mL in the control group. The results of this study showed an increase in plasma levels of ET-1 in both groups, but an increase in the treatment group occurred less than in the control group (p=0.838). LPD does not decrease the plasma levels of ET-1 in elderly patients with depressive symptom. Key words: latihan pasrah diri, mind body interventions, endothelin-1, elderly, depression
