Hipertensi adalah peningkatan tekanan darah yang abnormal tinggi di dalam arteri menyebabkan meningkatnya risiko stroke, gagal jantung dan kerusakan ginjal. Upaya penanganan secara NonFarmakologi untuk penderita hipertensi adalah pemberian terapi kombinasi akupresure dan jus tomat. Terapi akupresur dapat merangsang pembentukan hormon endorphin dan histamine yang menimbulkan rasa rilek dan tomat memiliki kalium sehingga dapat menurunkan tekanan darah. Tujuan penelitian ini mengetahui perbedaan efektifitas pemberian akupresure dan jus tomat dengan akupresure terhadap perubahan tekanan darah lansia dengan hipertensi. Jenis penelitian kuantitatif. Dengan rancangan quasi eksperimen dengan rancangan two group prettest dan posttest. Populasi seluruh lansia responden yang mengalami tekanan darah tinggi di Puskesmas Kebun Sikolos Padang Panjang. Teknik Purposive Sampling dengan jumlah sampel 40 responden. Pengumpulan data dalam penelitian ini dilakukan secara komputerisasi menggunakan Uji T Test Independent. Hasil analisa data Univariat terdapat nilai rata-rata tekanan darah sebelum intervensi akupresure dan jus tomat sistolik 151,3 mmHg dan diastolik 94,75 mmHg dan Rata- rata tekanan darah setelah intervensi akupresure dan jus tomat sistolik 135,5 dan diatolik 90,2. Sementara itu rata-rata tekanan darah sebelum intervensi akupresure sistolik 150,15 dan diastole 94,85 dan setelah intervensi akupresure sistolik 136.70 dan tekanan darah diatolik 90,2. Hasil analisa Bivarite terdapat kedua intervensi sama-sama efektifitas terhadap tekanan darah di dapatkan p-value 0,000. Serta untuk perbedaan efektifitas kedua intervensi dapat diketahui tidak ada sigfinikan antara pemberian akupresure dan jus tomat dengan pemberian akupresure terhadap penurunan tekanan darah lansia dengan hipertensi dan dimana terdapat nilai p-value sistolik 0.537 dan diastolik 1.000.

Hypertension is an abnormally high increase in blood pressure in the arteries causing an increased risk of stroke, heart failure and kidney damage. Non-pharmacological treatment for hypertension sufferers is a combination therapy of acupressure and tomato juice. Acupressure therapy can stimulate the formation of endorphins and histamine hormones which cause a feeling of relaxation and tomatoes have potassium so they can lower blood pressure. The purpose of this study was to determine the difference in the effectiveness of giving acupressure and tomato juice with acupressure on changes in blood pressure in the elderly with hypertension. This type of quantitative research. With a quasi-experimental design with two group pretest and posttest designs. The population was all elderly respondents who suffered from high blood pressure at the Kebun Sikolos Community Health Center Padang Panjang. By using purposive sampling 40 respondents were chosen as the samples.The data collection in this study was carried out computerized using the Independent T Test. The results of Univariate data analysis showed that the average blood pressure before the acupressure and tomato juice intervention was 151.3 mmHg systolic and 94.75 mmHg diastolic and the average blood pressure after the acupressure and tomato juice intervention was 135.5 systolic and 90.2 diastolic. Meanwhile the average blood pressure before the systolic acupressure intervention was 150.15 and 94.85 diastolic and after the acupressure intervention the systolic was 136.70 and the diastolic blood pressure was 90.2. The results of the Bivarite analysis showed that both interventions were equally effective on blood pressure with a p-value of 0.000. As well as for the difference in the effectiveness of the two interventions, it can be seen that there is no significant difference between giving acupressure and tomato juice with giving acupressure to reducing blood pressure in elderly people with hypertension and where there are p-values for systolic 0.537 and diastolic 1.000.
