Abstract

ABSTRACT Introduction: Benson’s relaxation technique is a simple method which helps to reduce blood pressure. Apart from the pharmacological measure, were it complicated to fetus. Nurse can implement certain non pharmacological methods into practice for reducing BP in PIH mothers. Based on the studies related to the effectiveness of breathing exercises, and relaxation therapy the investigator feel it as a strong need to study the effect of Benson’s relaxation therapy on antenatal mother with PIH in relation to the reduction in the level of BP. Methodology: A evaluative approach and quasi experimental pre test post test control group design was adopted for the study. The samples from the selected maternity hospital were selected using convenient sampling technique. The samples consisted 60 mothers with pregnancy induced hypertension. The tools used for data collection was structured spigmomanometer and stethoscope. Data collection procedure: Data was collected from 01.06.2022 to 30.06.2022 after obtaining administrative permission from selected hospital, Bangalore. The investigator personally explained the participants the need and assured them of the confidentiality of their responses. The data analysis was done by using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The statistical paired ‘t’ implies that the difference in the pretest and post-test value was found statistically significant at 5% level (P<0.05) with a paired ‘t’ value of 11.77. There exists a statistical significance in the difference of blood pressure score indicating the positive impact of Benson’s relaxation therapy. The statistical paired ‘t’ implies that the difference in the pretest and post-test value was found statistically significant at 5% level (P<0.05) with a paired ‘t’ value of 8.40. There exists a statistical significance in the difference of blood pressure score indicating the positive impact of Benson’s relaxation therapy. The statistical paired ‘t’ implies that the difference in the pretest and post-test value was found statistically not significant at 5% level (P<0.05) with a paired ‘t’ value of 1.88. There exists a statistical no significance in the difference of blood pressure score indicating the no change in systolic BP among participants of control group. The statistical paired ‘t’ implies that the difference in the pretest and post-test value was found statistically not significant at 5% level (P<0.05) with a paired ‘t’ value of 1.57. There exists a statistical no significance in the difference of blood pressure score indicating the no change in systolic BP among participants of control group. The present study revealed that, the computed Chi-square value for association between pretest level of blood pressure of participants of both groups and their selected demographic variables is found to be statistically significant at 0.05 levels for participant’s gravid, parity and family history of PIH/HTN. Conclusion: The primigravida woman had grade 1 and 2 pregnancy induced hypertension before Benson’s relaxation therapy and is reduced after exposure to Benson’s relaxation therapy among participants of experimental group. Since a very few studies have been conducted regarding this topic in India, so the nurse researcher can take further studies on the same topic. Key Words: Pregnancy induced hypertension, Benson’s relaxation therapy, effectiveness, mothers diagnosed with PIH
