Abstract

A stroke is a condition of injury to the brain that occurs due to an obstructed blood flow to the brain. Patients who have had a stroke often show weakness in the limbs. The main nursing problems experienced by individuals who have had a stroke include physical mobility barriers. Range Of Motion therapy is very useful for strengthening weak muscles and preventing complications that arise from a lack of movement, such as contractures. This study aims to explain the application of ROM therapy in stroke patients with mobility impairments. The method used in this study is a literature review. A literature review was conducted using articles and journals from the Google Scholar database from 2021 to 2025. using keywords: muscle weakness, Range of motion, Elderly, stroke. The results of the case study showed that both respondents who experienced physical mobility problems showed increased strength after undergoing ROM therapy. In conclusion, Range of Motion (ROM) therapy can help improve muscle strength in patients affected by stroke. It is recommended that families always accompany the patient during therapy to provide necessary support and understand how to assist the client with range-of-motion exercises.
