Hypertension management is not limited to pharmacological therapy but can also be achieved through non-pharmacological approaches, including herbal-based complementary therapies. One plant with potential as an antihypertensive is celery (<em>Apium Graveolens</em>). This study aims to determine the effectiveness of family nursing care through the provision of celery leaf decoction in reducing blood pressure in hypertensive patients. This study used a case study design with a family nursing care approach. The subject of the study was a 65-year-old hypertensive patient who lives in Bulukumba Regency. The intervention provided was health education and complementary therapy of celery leaf decoction for 7 consecutive days. Blood pressure measurements were carried out daily before and after the intervention to evaluate changes in blood pressure. The results showed a gradual decrease in blood pressure during the intervention period. The initial blood pressure of 165/90 mmHg decreased to 145/80 mmHg on the 7th day. In addition, there was an increase in family knowledge and involvement in hypertension management, as indicated by the family's ability to carry out therapy independently. The conclusion of this study shows that family nursing care through the provision of celery leaf decoction is effective in reducing blood pressure and increasing the role of the family in managing hypertension. This intervention can be an alternative non-pharmacological therapy that is simple, safe, and easy to implement at the community level.</p> Safruddin Safruddin, Nur Baeti Copyright (c) 2026 Jurnal Terpadu Panrita https://www.ojs.stikespanritahusada.ac.id/index.php/jtpanrita/article/view/932 Sun, 17 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.ojs.stikespanritahusada.ac.id/index.php/jtpanrita/article/view/938 <p><strong>Background</strong>: Acute pulmonary edema is an emergency condition that requires immediate treatment because it can be fatal and even lead to death due to disruption of gas exchange in the alveoli (Hayat, 2021). The prevalence of acute pulmonary edema in Indonesia is recorded at around 14% of 100,000 people/year, with a mortality rate of 40% for patients who do not seek prompt treatment (Hariyanto, 2020). <strong>Objective</strong>: To analyze the application of progressive muscle relaxation therapy to ineffective breathing patterns in patients with acute pulmonary edema. <strong>Methods</strong>: This study used a descriptive research design with a case study approach in one patient with acute pulmonary edema. <strong>Results</strong>: From the implementation results carried out for 3 days starting from Tuesday, December 23, 2025 to Thursday, December 25, 2025. After being given progressive muscle relaxation therapy, the shortness of breath experienced by the client decreased, the client's respiratory rate improved and the patient's oxygen saturation also improved so that the nursing problem of ineffective breathing patterns was said to be resolved. <strong>Conclusion</strong>: After implementing progressive muscle relaxation therapy for 3 days, the final result was that the ineffective breathing pattern was resolved, meaning that the provision of progressive muscle relaxation therapy was effective in reducing shortness of breath in patients.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Keywords: </strong>Acute Pulmonary Edema, Progressive Muscle Relaxation Therapy, Ineffective Breathing Patter.</p> <p> </p> Hamdana Hamdana, Nur Ilma, Andi Tenriola Copyright (c) 2026 Jurnal Terpadu Panrita https://www.ojs.stikespanritahusada.ac.id/index.php/jtpanrita/article/view/938 Mon, 18 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000
