Daftar Isi:
  • This study aims to identify the effectiveness of isometric handgrip exercise and slow deep breathing exercise on changes in blood pressure in patients with hypertension. Quasi experimental research design with a two group pretest posttest research design on 32 respondents. The results showed that there was a change in systolic and diastolic blood pressure after an Isometric Handgrip Exercise intervention (t = 8,279, p = 0,000), (t = 6,154, p = 0,000), and changes in systolic and diastolic blood pressure after a slow deep intervention was given breathing exercise (t = 3,632, p = 0,002), (t = 4,226, p = 0,001). Conclusion, both isometric handgrip exercise and slow deep breathing exercise can significantly reduce systolic and diastolic blood pressure in hypertensive patients.   Keywords: Hypertension, Isometric Handgrip Exercise, Slow Deep Breathing Exercise, Blood Pressure
