Abstract

Hypertension is a chronic disease known as the “silent killer” because it may cause serious complications such as stroke, heart disease, and kidney failure. In addition to pharmacological treatment, non-pharmacological therapies such as slow stroke back massage (SSBM) can support hypertension management by providing relaxation, improving blood circulation, and helping reduce blood pressure. This study aims to analyze the application of evidence-based nursing care using the SSBM technique to reduce blood pressure in hypertensive patients. A case study was conducted involving three hypertensive patients at Bhayangkara Moh. Hasan Hospital, Palembang. Data were collected through interviews and physical examinations, while the SSBM intervention was implemented for three consecutive days. The results showed a decrease in blood pressure in all patients after receiving the intervention. The greatest reduction occurred in Mrs. K, from 140/85 mmHg to 120/70 mmHg, followed by Mrs. S, from 153/85 mmHg to 143/82 mmHg. The smallest reduction was observed in Mrs. R, from 201/125 mmHg to 196/128 mmHg. SSBM can be considered a complementary non-pharmacological therapy to support hypertension management.
