PERBANDINGAN PENGUKURAN TEKANAN DARAH PADA LENGAN KIRI DAN LENGAN KANAN PADA PENDERITA HIPERTENSI DI RUANGAN IRINA C BLU RSUP PROF. DR. R. D. KANDOU MANADO

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Differences of blood pressure on left or right arm can be caused by several factors, including age factor, vascular occlusion, peripheral vascular disease, and heart problems. The purpose of this study was to determine the ratio of blood pressure measurements on the left arm and right arm in patients with hypertension. The research method used was descriptive analityc. The sampling technique used was accidental sampling, with the number of samples 31 respondents in room Irina C BLU RSUP Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Manado. With SPSS (Statistic Program for Science) used Wilcoxon signed test, at the 95% significance level (α =0.05), showed the value of p=0.034 (<0.05). This research was carried out three times measurements one ach respondent obtain and average value of measurements on the left arm of 2.9032 and 2.7097 on the right arm.
