ABSTRACT IMPACT OF WARM WATER AND COLD WATER ON BLOOD PRESSURE PRA LANSIA PATIENTS HYPERTENSION LEVEL I IN RW 14 VILLAGE OF KARYAWANGI DISTRICT PARONGPONG DISTRICT WEST BANDUNG The aging process causes decreased function in the body that causes the elderly more vulnerable to high blood pressure. High blood pressure is responsible for the high mortality caused by heart disease. The design used in this research is pre and post test with two groups: control and intervention group. The study found that mean blood pleasure value in the control group was 140.5 / 84mmHg. The mean blood pressure value in the elderly before the warm and cold water soak was 140.5 / 87mmHg and after soaking hot and cold water is 130.5 / 76 mmHg. There is a significant difference between the control group with the intervention group with p-value <0.005.
