Abstract

Background: Hypertension is known as a chronic non-communicable disease that can cause cardiovascular complications which are the main cause of patient death in the community. This study aims to synthesize research findings regarding factors related to behavior in the prevention of cardiovascular complications in hypertensive patients in Indonesia. Method: A systematic review. The search strategy was conducted on the Indonesian national journal database, namely "Garuda" database and four international journal databases, namely Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and Science Direct with the keywords "hypertension" AND "complications" AND "Indonesia", and in the Indonesian national journal database it is written "komplikasi hipertensi". The inclusion criteria of the article were population: hypertensive patients in Indonesia, intervention: various factors related to cardiovascular complication prevention behavior, comparison: none, outcome: behavior to prevent complications, study design: RCT, quasi-experimental, cross-sectional, case-control. The published year is 2017-2022. Results: There are 288 articles found in the search. Articles were identified and screened resulting in seven articles that met the inclusion criteria. The results of the study found that factors related to behavior for the prevention of cardiovascular complications in hypertensive patients were patient knowledge about hypertension, self-efficacy, and social support, namely family support and health worker support. Another factor that was also found was the individual's coping strategies in taking preventive measures to prevent cardiovascular complications. Conclusion: Increasing knowledge can help lead to good behavior for the prevention of cardiovascular complications in hypertensive patients. Increasing health promotion needs to be done by involving the collaboration of health workers and families to support patients to produce healthy behaviors.
