Abstract
Introduction. The group of non-communicable diseases that are very common and
easily detected in the community is hypertension. Uncontrolled hypertension or high
blood pressure can cause long-term and potentially fatal complications in coronary
artery disease, heart failure, stroke, and kidney failure. In addition, sufferers will
experience cognitive decline and poor quality of life overall. Thus, there is a need for
non-pharmacological therapy to reduce blood pressure in hypertensive patients. The
purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the combination therapy of Slow
Deep Breathing and Isometric Handgrip Exercise on reducing blood pressure in
hypertensive patients at the Kebonsari Public Health Center Surabaya. Materials &
Methods. This type of research uses a quasi-experimental approach carried out with a
two group pre post test approach where the samples used are the intervention group
and the control group. The population in this study were all controlled hypertension
patients at the Kebonsari Public Health Center Surabaya from April - June as many as
52 patients. The sample size is 46 with non-probability sampling technique with
purposive sampling technique. The intervention group was given a combination of
Slow Deep Breathing and Isometric Handgrip Exercise therapy for 10-15 minutes and
the control group was given standard intervention for 5 days. The variable studied was
blood pressure. Analysis using Independent t-test test if normally distributed, if not
normal then use Mann-Whitney test to determine the difference between the
intervention group and control group with a significance level of <0.05. Results. The
results obtained in the analysis of the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test Systolic blood
pressure in the intervention group p value = 0.000 and in the control group p value =
0.036. In the results of diastolic blood pressure in the intervention group, p value =
0.000 and p value = 0.035 in the control group. So that the results showed that there
was an effect of the combination therapy of Slow Deep Breathing and Isometric
Handgrip Exercise on blood pressure in hypertensive patients at the Kebonsari Health
