Abstract

ABSTRACT Good self-management in hypertension patients will reduce the risk of complications. This study’s aim was to analyse the correlation of coping strategies on anxiety levels in hypertension patients. The study uses a crosssectional study approach. The research has been conducted in Malang district, Indonesia, wherein a total sample of 108 participants was taken using simple random sampling. Research variables include anxiety and coping strategies. The data are collected using a questionnaire. The statistical test used is multiple linear regression analysis. The results show that there was a significant correlation of active coping (p-value = 0.005), planning (p-value = 0.041), suppression of competing activities (p-value = 0.007), restraint (p-value = 0.026), and the use of social support (p-value = 0.004) for anxiety in patients with hypertension. These results illustrate that improving coping strategies by focusing on problems through the use of active coping, planning, suppression of competing activities, restraint, and the use of social support influence is reducing anxiety in people with hypertension.

印尼玛琅县高血压患者应对策略与焦虑的相关性

高血压患者良好的自我管理可以降低并发症的发生风险。本研究的目的是分析高血压患者应对策略与焦虑水平的相关性。本研究采用横断面研究方法。本研究在印度尼西亚玛琅地区进行，采用简单随机抽样的方法，共抽取108名参与者。研究变量包括焦虑和应对策略。数据是通过问卷调查收集的。统计检验采用多元线性回归分析。结果显示，高血压患者焦虑与积极应对(p值= 0.005)、计划(p值= 0.041)、竞争活动抑制(p值= 0.007)、约束(p值= 0.026)、社会支持使用(p值= 0.004)存在显著相关。这些结果表明，通过使用积极应对、计划、抑制竞争活动、约束和使用社会支持影响来关注问题，改善应对策略可以减少高血压患者的焦虑。
