Effectiveness of Stress Immunization on Resilience, Anger Rumination, and Perceived Stress Among Women with Hypertension

Background: hypertension is a chronic disease that requires long-term treatment and, which despite being asymptomatic, leads to fatal complaints and complications.objective: the goal of this study was to see how stress immunization affected women with hypertension's resilience, angry rumination, and perceived stress.methods: the pretest-posttest control group design was used in this quasi-experimental investigation. this study's statistical population included all hypertensive women in tehran, in 2019. the samples (n=30) were randomly assigned to experimental(n=15) and control groups (n=15) using a convenience sampling procedure. the connor-davidson resilience scale (2003), anger rumination questionnaire (2001), perceived stress scale (1983), and a blood pressure monitor were used to obtain the necessary data. the data was analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance and repeated measures analysis of variance in spss software (version 22).results: stress immunization improved resilience (p<0.001), angry rumination (p<0.001), and perceived stress (p<0.001) in women with hypertension, according to the findings.conclusion: stress immunization increased resilience and reduced anger rumination and perceived stress in women with hypertension, according to the findings.
