Multidimensional quality of life of hypertension patients analysis using structural equation modelling-partial least square

\nHypertension is one of the non-communicable diseases that continues to experience an increasing prevalence rate. Hypertension in Indonesia has the highest prevalence compared to other non-communicable diseases. The province of Aceh ranks tenth in the highest prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia. The third highest prevalence cases in Aceh Province is in Pidie Regency. This study was conducted to analyze the factors influencing the quality of life of hypertensive patients using the Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) method. The research utilized data from a non-communicable disease survey conducted in Pidie Regency in 2023. The results of this study revealed 4 indicators representing demographic factors, 3 indicators representing activity factors, and 4 indicators representing quality of life. The factors significantly are demographics, physical activity, and medication adherence, with a Q2 value of 0.98, meaning that 98% of the variability can be explained by demographic, physical activity, and medication adherence factors.\n
