Abstract

Abstrak: Hipertensi, atau tekanan darah tinggi, masih menjadi masalah kesehatan utama dan penyebab kematian terbanyak di dunia, terutama pada lansia. Skrining hipertensi sangat penting untuk meningkatkan kesadaran dan deteksi dini penyakit ini. Pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kesadaran lansia tentang pentingnya hipertensi dan cara mengatasinya. Kegiatan ini dilakukan dalam bentuk skrining, edukasi, dan pemeriksaan kesehatan terkait bahaya hipertensi dengan jumlah peserta adalah 105 lansia. Kegiatan ini dilakukan melalui tiga tahap: perencanaan, pelaksanaan, dan evaluasi. Pada tahap pelaksanaan, dilakukan penyuluhan tentang bahaya hipertensi, skrining tekanan darah, gula darah sewaktu, dan kolesterol total, serta konsultasi kesehatan dengan dokter. Hasil skrining menunjukkan bahwa 37% lansia mengalami pre-hipertensi, 97,5% memiliki gula darah sewaktu normal, dan 40% memiliki hasil kolesterol total tinggi. Evaluasi menunjukkan bahwa lansia yang mengikuti kegiatan ini mendapatkan edukasi terkait bahaya hipertensi, melakukan skrining kesehatan, serta konsultasi kesehatan dari dokter untuk mengatasi hipertensi, Antusiasme lansia terhadap kegiatan ini sangat tinggi.

Abstract: Hypertension, or high blood pressure, remains a prevalent health concern and a leading cause of mortality worldwide, particularly among the elderly population. Hypertension screening is crucial for promoting awareness and early detection of this condition. This community service project aimed to raise awareness among elderly individuals about the significance of hypertension and its management strategies. The project involved screening, education, and health examinations related to hypertension risks, targeting 105 elderly participants.The project was implemented in three phases: planning, implementation, and evaluation. During the implementation phase, educational sessions on hypertension risks were conducted, followed by screenings for blood pressure, random blood glucose, and total cholesterol. Additionally, participants received medical consultations with a physician.The screening results revealed that 37% of the elderly participants had pre-hypertension, 97.5% had normal random blood glucose levels, and 40% had high total cholesterol levels. The evaluation indicated that participants gained knowledge about hypertension risks, underwent health screenings, and received medical consultations from a physician to manage their hypertension. The elderly participants demonstrated high enthusiasm for the project.This community service project effectively enhanced awareness and knowledge among elderly individuals regarding hypertension. The project's success highlights the importance of targeted interventions to promote hypertension management and improve the overall health of older adults.
