Hypertensive Patients
ispublished: pub
subjects: ZA4450
abstract: Background:  Adherence to taking medication is a prerequisite for hypertension treatment to be more effective and most likely to cure patients in controlling hypertension so that complications and death do not occur. 
Objective: The objective of this study is to discover the dominant factors of elderly hypertension patients' conformity to medication at the Jatinegara District Health Center. 
Methods: It is a quantitative study with Cross Sectional approach. It involved 200 respondents, as the sample was taken using a quota sampling technique. 
Results: Univariate results showed that 25% of elderly hypertensive patients did not adhere to medication. In bivariate analysis, it was found that family support, self-efficacy, motivation, and health workers' roles were related (p-value <0.05) to adherence to hypertension medication consumption. Meanwhile, no relation (pvalue 0.05) existed between age, knowledge, attitude, access to healthcare facilities, and JKN participation variables. The dominant variable observed from the multivariate result was the interaction of attitudes and self-efficacy (OR: 23,943). 
Conclusion: Based on multivariate analysis, it was found that the influential factors were self-efficacy and attitudes.
