Abstract

Background: The elderly is prone to health problems such as geriatric syndrome, including cognitive impairment. One of the causes of cognitive impairment is vascular disorders such as hypertension. Although hypertension is not a contagious disease, the percentage of incidence in Central Java Province is quite high. Lifestyle is one of the factors that influence the occurrence of hypertension and should be noted that not all hypertensive conditions have symptoms or complaints. Aim: To determine the correlation of hypertension with cognitive impairment in the elderly in Jatinom, Klaten. Methods: Observational analytic with cross sectional design. The study required 35 subjects over 60 years who had hypertension. The study was conducted by home visit by measuring blood pressure and submitting questions and orders according to the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE). Results: Analysis using the Mann Whitney test obtained p value = 0,000 (p < 0.05) for hypertension and the level of education with MMSE score. Hypertension and the level of education can affect cognitive impairment in the elderly (elderly 60–74 years old and old age 75–90 years old). Cognitive impairment was not correlated with age, sex, occupation, family history, diabetes mellitus, stroke, smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, and body mass index Conclusion: There was a significant correlation between hypertension and the level of education with cognitive impairment..
