Background: Elderly 60 years and over will experience a decrease and physical changes, one of which is in the cardiovascular system, namely high blood pressure or hypertension. One way to lower blood pressure with non-pharmacological therapy is by soaking the feet in warm water.Objective: To determine the effect of warm water foot soaks hydrotherapy on reducing blood pressure in hypertensive elderly.Method: This study used a quasi-experimental research method by measuring blood pressure before the hydrotherapy intervention was soaked in warm water and after that, the blood pressure was measured again. The research subjects were hypertensive elderly in Kembangan Hamlet who met the inclusion criteria. The sampling technique used a random sampling technique with 10 research subjects in the intervention group and 11 in the control group. Data were analyzed using independent t-test and paired t-test.Results: fter the intervention, in the intervention group, there was a change in systolic mean (pretest: 151,20 mmHg, posttest: 137 mmHg, p=0,000), but not in diastolic mean (pretest: 84,20 mmHg, posttest: 82,80 mmHg, p= 0,066). Meanwhile, in the control group, there were differences in both systolic and diastolic mean (systolic pretest: 160,18 mmHg, posttest: 157,45 mmHg, p=0,001 and diastolic pretest: median 90 mmHg, posttest: median 88 mmHg, p=0,002). There were significant differences in systolic gain in both groupsĀ (p=0,000) but not in diastolic (p=0,061)Conclusion: there is a significant difference in blood pressure after warm water foot soaks therapy in hypertensive elderly in Kembangan Hamlet, Candibinangun, Pakem.ABSTRAKLatar belakang: Lansia 60 tahun keatas akan mengalami penurunan dan perubahan fisik, salah satunya pada sistem kardiovaskular yaitu penyakit tekanan darah tinggi atau hipertensi. Salah satu cara menurunkan tekanan darah dengan terapi non farmakologi yaitu dengan hidroterapi rendam kaki air hangat.Tujuan: Untuk mengetahui pengaruh hidroterapi rendam kaki air hangat terhadap penurunan tekanan darah pada lansia hipertensi.Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian quasi eksperimen dengan cara pengukuran tekanan darah sebelum dilakukan intervensi hidroterapi rendam kaki air hangat dan setelah itu dilakukan pengukuran tekanan darah kembali. Subjek penelitian yaitu lansia hipertensi di Dusun Kembangan yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan teknik random sampling dengan subjek penelitian sebanyak 10 orang kelompok intervensi dan 11 orang kelompok kontrol. Tekanan darah diukur menggunakan tensimeter. Pengukuran posttest dilakukan satu kali. Analisis data dilakukan dengan uji independen t-test dan paired t test.Hasil: Setelah dilakukan intervensi rendam kaki air hangat, pada kelompok intervensi terjadi perubahan rata-rata tekanan darah sistolik (pretest: 151,20 mmHg, posttest: 137 mmHg, p=0,000) namun tidak ada perubahan tekanan diastolik (pretest: 84,20 mmHg, posttest: 82,80 mmHg, p= 0,066). Sementara di kelompok kontrol terjadi perubahan tekanan darah sistolik (pretest: 160,18 mmHg, posttest: 157,45 mmHg, p=0,001) dan diastolik (pre test: median 90 mmHg, posttest: median 88 mmHg, p=0,002). Perbedaan selisih sistolik pada kedua kelompok didapatkan p=0,000, namun pada selisih diastolik didapat nilai p=0,061.Simpulan: Ada perbedaan yang signifikan pada tekanan darah setelah dilakukan terapi rendam kaki air hangat pada lansia hipertensi di Dusun Kembangan, Candibinangun, Pakem.
