Research Abstract |
The objectives of this study were to identify relevant factors for the development of a blood pressure reducing program for family caregivers and to determine whether sodium concentration in hair can be used as a measure of nutritional status. Increased diastolic blood pressure was observed in family caregivers with depressive feelings. As part of the program development activities, we developed a questionnaire to assess family caregivers' level of awareness of caregiving. We also developed a recipe for the DASH(dietary approaches stop hypertension) diet suited for Japanese people. Sodium concentration in hair was found to be correlated with age and potassium level, but not sodium intake estimated from the food-frequency questionnaire or sodium excretion in a 24-h urine sample. The results suggest that sodium concentration in hair can be used as a measure of long-term nutritional status.
