Abstract

BACKGROUND: Hypertension is the most important preventable cause of morbidity and mortality in the world. Self-awareness of people with hypertension can reduce the mortality and morbidity rates of complications. One intervention to improve self-awareness is the establishment of a self-help group (SHG) for those willing to share their experiences and motivations on a supportive strategy to build self-awareness of hypertension.

AIM: This study was conducted to determine whether there was an effect of Self-help Group (SHG) intervention on the self-awareness of hypertensive patients in Mantrijeron sub-district of Yogyakarta.

METHODS: This study used a pre-experimental research method with one group pre-test and post-test design. Participants in the study amounted to 23 SHG members in Hamlet number 10 Jogokaryan, Mantrijeron Village, which were determined using the sample size estimation formula and the respondent's anticipation to drop out. The sampling technique used in this study is purposive sampling technique or a sample that has the criteria set by the researcher and the participants are willing to participate in the study.

RESULTS: The mean value of self-awareness before conducting SHG for hypertensive people at Mantrijeron was 48.35. The mean value of self-awareness after doing SHG in hypertensive patients at Mantrijeron is 62.39. The results of the paired sample t-test showed that there is significant effect of conducting SHG on the intervention group with p = 0.001 (p <0.05).

CONCLUSION: There is an effect of SHG on self-awareness before and after the SHG.
