ABSTRACT:

Background: The elderly group tends to experience health problems caused by decreased body functions due to the aging process. So it is more susceptible to suffer from hypertension.
Purpose: This study aims to determine the influence of characteristics on the incidence of hypertension in the elderly
Method: The method used is quantitative with Cross Sectional design. The population of this study is a productive age community, which is between 15-60 years. The sample was taken in a simple random manner with a sample of 245 respondents. Data collection using questionnaires. The statistical test used is the chi square test
Results: The results of this study showed a significant influence between the age of hypertension (p = 0.000). There is a significant influence between the history of hypertension and the incidence of hypertension (0.015). Gender was not a risk factor for hypertension (p = 1,000).
Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is that people aged 60-74 are 4.2 times more likely to suffer from hypertension. People who have a history of hypertension are 1.9 times more likely to suffer from hypertension. While the sex variable could not be proven in this study. So it is necessary to educate people over 60 years old and have a history of hypertension to pay more attention to lifestyle and routinely check blood pressure.
