Efektivitas ROM (Range of Motion) terhadap Kekuatan Otot pada Pasien Stroke di Rumah Sakit Royal Prima Tahun 2021

Abstract

Muscle weakness in stroke patients will affect muscle contraction. Muscle contraction  due to reduced blood supply to the brain, thereby blocking the main nerves of the   brain and spinal cord . Blockage ofa oxygen and nutrientsto the brain causes serious health problems because it can cause hemiparesis and even death . The occurrence    ofa disturbances in the level ofa physical mobilization of patients is often caused by a movement in the form of bed rest. The ofa a weakened muscle condition associated with a lack ofa physical activity usually appear within a few days. Control ofa the brain  to   regulate muscle   movement has decreased function resulting in reduced muscle mass. This study i aims to determine the effectiveness ofa ROM (range of motion ) on muscle strength in stroke patients at the Royal i Prima Hospital in Medan. This study i used i a quasi-experiment with one i group pre-posttest. The instrument used is  an observation sheet while the Wilcoxon test is used for testing. Prior to ROM training, most ofa the respondents ' strength was on a scale ofa 3 (67.9 %) and minority   muscle   strength was on a scale of 4 (10.7%). After doing ROM (Range of Motion) exercise there was an increase in muscle strength where the majority muscle strength on a scale ofa 4 was (45.5) and the muscle strength of the minority patient was on a scale ofa 5 (30.0%). There is an Effectiveness of i ROM i (Range of Motion) on Muscle Strength in Stroke Patients at the Royal Prima Hospital Medan in 2021 with p-value of 0.004. Keywords: ROM, Exercises , Muscle Strength
