  • The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Chu-ma therapy and to suggest that the therapy is an effective nursing intervention tool to reduce blood pressure. The research design employed was the non-synchronized research method with non- equivalent control group. A total of 30 people with essential hypertension, who were from forty to sixty five years old, participated in the study. The Chu-ma therapy was administered by every day for ten or fifteen minutes for eight weeks from 19, April to 13, June in 1999. In order to evaluate the effects of Chu-ma therapy, blood pressure of the two groups were measured once a week, and physiological parameters (epinephrine, norepinephrine, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides) were measured before and after the treatment. Collected data was analyzed by SAS package. The results of this study can be summarized as follows : 1) There were significant decrease in systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in the experimental group. 2) There were no significant changes in epinephrine, norepinephrine of the two groups. 3) There were significant decrease in total cholesterol and triglycerides, and HDL- cholesterol increased significantly in the experimental group. 4) The effect of Chu-ma therapy on the measured time on the blood pressure in experimental group was as follows: Both of systolic and diastolic blood pressures were significantly decreased after 5weeks. The result proved that Chu-ma therapy is an effective nursing intervention tool for clients with essential hypertenion. However further research is still necessary to compare the effect with the different periods and number of times for Chu-ma therapy.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore practice-based evidence for health promotion in vulnerable populations with hypertension in primary health care settings. Methods: Two methodological procedures were adopted for this triangulation study. In the first phase, the sample was obtained from the computerized clinical data repository of a community nursing center. A total of 286 clients were assessed for hypertension as an actual circulation problem as coded in the Omaha System. In the second phase, a qualitative focus group was surveyed through semi-structured interviews conducted by nine advanced practice nurses who had been serving the hypertensive patients. Results: The community nurses provided essential primary healthcare services including health teaching guidance and counseling, and surveillance to vulnerable populations living in medically underserved community. There was a significant positive correlation between knowledge and behavior (r=.53, p<.01), between knowledge and health status (r=.40, p<.05), and between behavior and health status (r=.48, p<.01). Conclusion: This triangulation study encompassed not only quantitative findings from the computerized records of clients but also other information acquired from advanced practice nurses. This study contributes to understanding the importance of health promotion nursing interventions even with populations already diagnosed with chronic diseases such as hypertension.

  • To find out a convenient and reliable method of. detecting low renin status, we employed intravenous furosemide injection as a stimulatory maneuver. The results thus obtained were compared with those from the postural stimuli and basal plasma renin activity (PRA) in relation to sodium excretion. Intravenous furosemide test was performed in 66 control subjects and 44 patients with essential hypertension. The results were as follow; 1) Mean PRA in control subjects rose from $2.5{\pm}1.95$ ng/ml/hr (basal) to $4.5{\pm}2.51,\;5.2{\pm}2.49\;and\;4.2{\pm}2.44$ ng/ml/hr at 1, 2 and 3hrs after IV injection. One-hour response is more convenient in clinical practice. 2) Postural stimuli by assuming an upright posture for 3 hrs gave rise to considerable increase in PRA ($4.0{\pm}2.92\;from\;2.4{\pm}1.85$), but we found it less convenient than stimulation with furosemide. 3) The increase in PRA was much less marked in patients with essential hypertension as a whole ($2.9{\pm}2.75$). Hyporesponsiveness to furosemide stimuli was found in 34.1%. Of these hypo responders, a third had a normal basal PRA, indicating the need for this kind stimulatory procedure. 4) Younger age group showed greater renin responsiveness than older age group after furosemide stimuli. Likewise mean age of low renin patients ($52.9{\pm}5.38$ years old) was significantly higher than that of high and normal renin patients ($44.1{\pm}13.78$ years old).

  • This study was aimed at investigating the relationship of stress perception and psychopathology with biological variables such as systolic and diastolic blood pressure. serum total cholesterol high density lipoprotein and triglyceride in 50 adult patients with essential hypertension and 50 normotensive individuals. Both of the groups were matched to each other regarding age, sex, the level of education and BMI(body mass index). Stress perception and psychopathology between the two groups were compared using GARS and SCL-90-R scales. Biological variables such as blood pressure(systolic. diastolic), serum total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein and triglyceride were measured in all the subjects. The results were as follows ; 1) Hypertensive patients scored significantly higher than normotensive individuals in stress perception related to unusual happenings, change or no change in routine and overall global area, respectively. 2) Regarding psychopathology, hypertensive patients scored significantly higher than normotensive individuals in depression. hostility and interpersonal sensitivity. respectively. 3) Systolic blood pressure had a significantly positive correlation with scores of stress perception related to sickness and injury, and change or no change in routine, respectively. Diastolic blood pressure had a significantly positive correlation with scores of stress perception related to change or no change in routine. 4) In hypertensive patients. the level of serum total cholesterol had a significantly positive correlation with scores of stress perception related to unusual happenings. However, the level of serum triglyceride had a significantly negative correlation with scores of stress perception related to changes in relationships, sickness or injury, and change or no chang in routine. 5) There were no significant correlations between scores of stress perception and biological factors in the normotensive group. 6) The level of serum triglyceride correlated negatively with phobic anxiety in hypertensive group. whereas it correlated positively with PSDI in normotensive group. In conclusion, these results suggest that hypertensive patients have higher level of stress perception and psychopathology than normal individuals. In hypertensive patients, their stress perception is suggested to be correlated with serum cholesterol.

  • Radioimmunoassay for the measurement of plasma renin activity (PRA) was performed in 43 normal Koreans and 45 patients with essential hypertension. Plasma samples were drawn in supine position in the morning and after upright posture for 4 hours. Urinary sodium excretion rates were measured in the concurrent 24 hour urine samples, as an index of their sodium balance. The results were as follows: 1. There was an inverse correlation between 24hr sodium excretion and PRA. The normal values of PRA in supine position ranged from 1.0 to 7.0 ng/ml/hr. when 24 hour sodium excretion were between 50 to 150 mEq. PRA in elderly tended to be low. 2. When stimulated by 4 hour upright posture, PRA increased by 2.6 times from the baseline value. 3. Of the 45 patients with essential hypertension, PRA was low in 10 cases (22.2%), normal in 28 cases (62.2%), and high in 7 cases (15.6%). 4. In the normal and high renin groups, who tended to be younger in ages, mean diastolic blood pressure and BUN were higher than in low renin group. Though hypertensive retinopathy and left ventricular hypertrophy in ECG were more prevalent in the former, no significant differences were noted as in the case of serum cholesterol. 5. There were 8 cases of cardiovascular complications (7 with cerebral vascular accident, 1 with myocardial infarction); 3 in low renin group (30%), 2 in normal renin (7.1%) and 3 in high renin group (42.9%). This figure indicated higher rate of cardiovascular complications in high renin groups, and lower rate in normal renin group. But the incidence of the complication was not significantly low in low renin group.

  • 최근 우리나라는 식생활의 서구화와 더불어 운동부족 등으로 고혈압 발병률이 급격히 증가하고 있다. 많은 연구자들은 운동요법으로서의 고혈압 처치 및 예방을 위하여 다각도적인 접근을 시도하고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 연구들이 혈압강하와 관련된 운동의 효과 분석, 운동프로그램의 유용성 분석 등에 한정되어 있으며, 연령별 고혈압여부에 따른 체력의 차이에 대한 분석은 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 연구자는 국민건강 관점에서 볼 때 연령별 고혈압여부에 따른 체력 수준 차이에 대한 확인은 고혈압 예방 및 처치를 위한 핵심적인 자료가 될 수 있기 때문에 금후에 진행되어야 할 중요한 연구 과제라 생각한다. 따라서 본 연구는 20대 이상의 성인 여성을 대상으로 연령별 고혈압여부에 따른 체력의 차이를 확인하여 고혈압 예방에 대한 체력수준의 중요성을 강조하고자 한다. 또한, 심폐기능의 차이를 추가적으로 살펴봄으로써 보다 가치 있는 연구를 도모하고자 한다. 2004년 1월 2일부터 2008년 9월 31일까지 S시 Y구 보건소 내 건강증진센터를 방문하여 고혈압검사가 포함된 종합검진을 받은 20세 이상의 성인 여성 8889명을 분석대상으로 하였다. 미국 고혈압 합동위원회의 제7차보고서(JNC7)의 고혈압 기준에 따라서 정상군, 조기고혈압군, 고혈압1기군과 고혈압2기군으로 나누었다. 심폐기능의 평가는 안정시심박수와 폐활량으로 체력의 평가는 심폐지구력, 근지구력, 근력, 순발력, 민첩성, 평형성, 유연성으로 하였고, 고혈압 발병에 영향을 미치는 독립 위험변수인 체질량지수, 음주, 흡연을 보정한 공변량분석(ANCOVA)을 이용하여 체력차이를 분석하였다. 연구결과 2가지의 모든 심폐기능 변인, 7가지의 모든 체력 변인에서 대부분의 연령대별로 4집단 간의 유의한 차이가 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 이를 통하여 정상군에서 고혈압군으로 혈압수준이 높아질수록 낮은 심폐기능과 낮은 체력수준을 소유하고 있는 것을 확인하였다.
