Abstract
Background: Hypertension or high blood pressure is a global health problem that is increasing every year, with serious consequences such as stroke, heart failure, and kidney failure. Risk factors for hypertension include age, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, and stress. Prevention can be done through healthy lifestyle changes and educational programs. Interpersonal communication (IEC) plays an important role in increasing public awareness about hypertension, but still faces various challenges such as lack of understanding and limited time of health workers. Objective: to analyze the role of interpersonal communication in the prevention and management of hypertension in Gampong Suka Damai, Lueng Bata District, Banda Aceh City. Method: Data analysis of the implementation of this community service was carried out descriptively because there was no quantitative data collected during the activity. The success of this activity is measured by the attendance and activeness of the participants during the activity. This activity will be carried out in Suka Damai village, Lueng Bata sub-district, Banda Aceh city in January 2025. The target of this activity is the entire community regardless of age. Result: Based on the results of statistical analysis, the average score of IEC in Hypertension has increased from 7.1429 in the pre-test to 12.5714 in the post-test. Standard deviation shows a value of 2.105 in the pre-test and 1.982 in the post-test. In addition, the p-value of 0.000 indicates that the difference between pre-test and post-test is highly statistically significant (p < 0.05). Conclusion: This shows an increase in respondents' understanding after intervention or education. This result confirms the importance of education and communication in improving people's understanding and awareness of hypertension. With increased knowledge, people can better prevent and manage hypertension, thereby reducing the risk of complications in the future.
