Risk Factors for Hypertension among Health Workers in Banyuasin: A Literature Review
Keywords:
banyuasin, hypertension, health workers, literature review, risk factorsAbstract
Hypertension is a non-communicable disease that commonly occurs among health workers who have high workloads and exposure to various risk factors. This study aims to identify risk factors for hypertension among health workers through a literature review. This study used a literature review method, searching articles in PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and the Garuda and Neliti portals. The search was conducted using keywords related to healthcare workers, hypertension, and risk factors using Boolean operators. Inclusion criteria included full-text articles, written in Indonesian or English, published between 2020 and 2025, and examining risk factors for hypertension in healthcare workers. Of the 94 identified articles, the title-abstract selection process, full-text assessment, and duplication checking resulted in 10 articles for analysis. The review showed that age, body mass index (BMI), central obesity, and low physical activity were the most consistent factors associated with hypertension. Behavioral factors such as high sodium intake, unhealthy diet, and poor sleep quality among shift workers also contributed. Some studies highlighted the role of elevated blood glucose levels as a metabolic factor increasing blood pressure. Hypertension among health workers is influenced by a combination of individual, behavioral, metabolic, and occupational factors; therefore, prevention efforts should focus on workplace-based interventions.
