Key result
Slow deep breathing plus Dhikr therapy shifts ~74% of patients to Grade 1 hypertension.
Why the study?
Hypertension is a silent killer with no specific symptoms, necessitating effective interventions to manage blood pressure changes.
Does Slow Deep Breathing therapy in combination with Dhikr Asmaul Husna reduce blood pressure in patients with hypertension?
Does Slow Deep Breathing therapy in combination with Dhikr Asmaul Husna reduce blood pressure in patients with hypertension?
Absolute Event Rate: 73.5% vs 17.6%
p-value: p=0.001
Slow deep breathing combined with Dhikr Asmaul Husna significantly lowered blood pressure grades in hypertensive patients, suggesting its utility as a complementary non-pharmacological therapy.
Should not yet change hypertension care; hypothesis-generating for breathing plus dhikr as adjunct.
Hypertension is a problem that needs to be watched out for, because there are no signs of specific symptoms in hypertension and some people still feel healthy to do their usual activities. This is what makes hypertension a silent killer. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of Slow Deep Breathing therapy in combination with Dhikr Asmaul Husna on changes in blood pressure in Hypertension patients in Ambulu Probolinggo.This research is pre-experimental with a one-group pre test and post test design. The population of 37 people with hypertension with a sampling technique using purposive sampling, namely 34 respondents with hypertension who have inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data collection was conducted using a Ratio scale observation sheet. The statistical test uses the Wilcoxon test.Results of the study were obtained by respondents before the Slow Deep Breathing therapy in combination with Dhikr Asmaul Husna was obtained as the most Grade 2 Blood Pressure Change value, namely 23 respondents (67.6%), and the value after Slow Deep Breathing therapy in combination with Dhikr Asmaul Husna was obtained the most Blood Pressure Change value classified as Degree 1, namely 25 respondents (73.5%), From the results of the Wilcoxon statistical test, p value = 0.001 was obtained. This shows that Slow Deep Breathing therapy in combination with Dhikr Asmaul Husna affects changed in blood pressure in people with hypertension.Slow Deep Breathing Therapy in combination with Dhikr Asmaul Husna is a program that can be applied to Hypertension patients who have High Blood Pressure. nurses are expected to be able to use Slow Deep Breathing Therapy in combination with Dhikr Asmaul Husna as a health promotion program.

Gisti et al. (2026) studied Hypertension (n=34). Slow Deep Breathing combined with Dhikr Asmaul Husna vs. Baseline (Pre-test) was evaluated on Improvement to Grade 1 Hypertension (p=0.001). Slow Deep Breathing therapy combined with Dhikr Asmaul Husna significantly reduced blood pressure, shifting the majority of patients from Grade 2 to Grade 1 hypertension (p = 0.001).
