ABSTRAK
Latar Belakang: Hipertensi merupakan penyakit kronis yang sering dialami lansia dan dapat menimbulkan gangguan perfusi perifer serta berbagai komplikasi. Salah satu upaya nonfarmakologis untuk membantu mengendalikan tekanan darah adalah melalui edukasi latihan fisik terstruktur berupa senam hipertensi. Tujuan: Mendeskripsikan penerapan edukasi latihan fisik terstruktur senam hipertensi pada lansia dengan hipertensi di Wilayah Kerja UPTD Puskesmas Tanjung Agung Tahun 2026. Metode: Studi kasus deskriptif dilakukan pada dua lansia hipertensi. Intervensi berupa edukasi dan senam hipertensi diberikan selama 3 minggu dengan 6 kali pertemuan. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara, observasi, pemeriksaan fisik, pengukuran tekanan darah, dan dokumentasi, kemudian dievaluasi menggunakan indikator SLKI. Hasil: Setelah intervensi, kedua klien menunjukkan perbaikan kondisi yang ditandai dengan berkurangnya keluhan pusing, sakit kepala, nyeri tengkuk, kram otot, dan kelemahan fisik.

ABSTRACT
Background: Hypertension is a chronic disease frequently experienced by the elderly that can lead to impaired peripheral perfusion and various complications. One non-pharmacological approach to help control blood pressure is through education on structured physical exercise in the form of hypertension exercises. Objective: To describe the implementation of education on structured physical exercise for elderly individuals with hypertension in the working area of the Tanjung Agung Community Health Center. Methods: A descriptive case study was conducted on two elderly individuals with hypertension. The intervention, consisting of education and hypertension exercises, was administered over three weeks across six sessions. Data were collected through interviews, observation, physical examinations, blood pressure measurements, and documentation, and subsequently evaluated using SLKI indicators. Results: Following the intervention, both clients showed clinical improvement, characterized by a reduction in complaints such as dizziness, headaches, neck pain, muscle cramps, and physical weakness. Additionally, there was an improvement in peripheral pulse strength and physical activity capacity, as well as better blood pressure control. Conclusion: Education on structured physical exercise through hypertension exercises can help improve peripheral perfusion, physical activity capacity, and blood pressure control in elderly individuals with hypertension. Therefore, this activity should be conducted routinely as part of healthcare services for the elderly.
