Abstract
In this survey, patients were given egg white extract with honey. The purpose of this research was to assess the effectivity of egg white extract with honey intake on blood pressure dan Hb level. A single-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted at DR. M. Zein hospital in 2018 (895.6/034/RSUD/2019). Sampling technic used purposive sampling, and 32 patients were allocated to intervention (n = 16) and control (n = 16) groups. Both groups received high energy high protein diet; the intervention group received an oral egg white extract with honey for seven days. Data were analyzed using a paired-sample t-test to analyze before-after differences in blood pressure dan Hb level between. Wilcoxon Sign Rank test was used to assess the differences between the two groups. The average blood pressure and blood pressure before study in the intervention group, respectively, was 125/81 mmHg and 11, g/dL eight, and that in the control group was 114,06/75,13 and 10,99 mmHg. The average after study in the intervention group was 109/ 71mmHg and 12,8, and that in the control group was 119/78 and 11,3. Bivariate analysis showed that there was a significant difference in the increase of blood pressure and Hb level between intervention groups with p= 0.001 (p < 0.05). Meanwhile, there was no significant difference in the increase of blood pressure and Hb level between control groups with p = 0.5 (p > 0.05). Egg white effectively increased blood pressure and Hb level in the intervention group.
