Comparison of Muscle Strength in Stroke Patients between The Given and Not Given
Stroke is a condition in which the flow of blood supply to the brain inhibits.
Symptoms that occur in stroke patients include weakness in the upper and lower ekstermitas,
loss of facial sensation, difficulty speaking, and difficulty swallowing. Another symptom that
arises is hemiparesis that occurs muscle weakness on one side of the body that causes
maintain muscle flexibility and strength. ROM exercises can be done actively and passively
on all joints or only on parts such as the neck, fingers, arms, elbows, shoulders, knees, feet
and ankles that are suspected of having the disease as a weakness of the extremities. This will
reduce stroke complications so that the healing process after a stroke will be faster so that
patients feel more comfortable. Decreased muscle strength, muscle atrophy, contractures and
decubitus sores will occur if ROM exercises are not implemented as early as possible.
In addition to ROM, increased muscle strength is also affected by age, younger people
tend to recover faster than older people. Based on the research that has been done found that
there is a significant difference that is the increase in muscle strength in patients who were
given ROM exercise compared with patients who were not given ROM. In this research also
1. ROM exercises can be used in the provision of nursing care as nursing orders
2. ROM exercises should be done early and programmed in every nursing service institution
either by the nurse or in collaboration with the family after the first family is taught about the
range of motion exercises
3. Create a fixed schedule schedule (SOP) and a clear schedule ROM like frequency 2 times a
4. Provide training and guidance to the nurses about the implementation of ROM exercises
5. The need for further research on the effects of ROM exercises for muscle strength in
patients with homogeneity of stroke samples can therefore improve the study.
