Abstract

The prevalence of high blood pressure in the population aged 18 years and above increased from 25.8% to 34.1%. The significant increase in cases of non-communicable diseases is expected to increase the burden on society and government, because handling it requires large costs and requires high technology.

The research method uses quantitative methods with a Cross Sectionl design approach. The number of samples in this study amounted to 160 hypertension prolanis patients.

Data collection through primary data by distributing questionnaires with independent variables (diet, smoking habits, physical activity, stress conditions, family support, the role of health workers and compliance with drug consumption) and the dependent variable is controlled blood pressure.
