Rizkaningsih*, Rr. Sri Endang Pujiastuti and Supriyana
ABSTRACT
Background: Hemodialysis is one of the management measures for patients with chronic renal failure, apart from having benefits, on the other hand, it can generally cause physical, psychological stress to patients during and after hemodialysis, one of which is blood pressure instability. Motor relaxation is a physical exercise on the patient's upper and lower extremities during hemodialysis which can cause the patient's relaxation response during hemodialysis. Objective: To analyze the effect of motor relaxation on systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Methods: Used a True Experimental approaches pre-post test design with control group, research was conducted in RSU Anutapura Palu with the number of 40 respondents who met the inclusion criteria using the technique of simple random sampling. Respondents were divided into intervention groups (n = 20) and control groups (n = 20). Data analysis used Repeated Measures ANOVA test. Results: It shows that there is a significant difference in systolic blood pressure in the intervention group before and after the intervention with a p value of 0.000
