Abstract

Hypertension is still the number one killer disease in Indonesia. Approximately one billion people worldwide suffer from this disease. Hypertension can be treated with pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments. One of the non-pharmacological treatments is autogenic relaxation. This study aims to determine the effect of autogenic relaxation on hypertensive blood pressure changes. This study uses a Systematic Literature Review, a synthesis of systemic, precise, comprehensive literature studies by identifying, analyzing, evaluating through collecting existing data with an explicit search method and involving a critical review process in selecting the studies. The data from 11 journals were obtained from screening a number of journals from Science Direct, and Google Scholar. The results of the analysis showed that there was an effect of autogenic relaxation on blood pressure in hypertensive patients. Autogenic relaxation can benefit changes in blood pressure in hypertensive patients and is suitable if done regularly.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
