Stroke is a condition that occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is suddenly disrupted, Signs and symptoms of stroke experience disturbances when walking due to disturbances in the strength and balance of a person's body who experiences movement disorders or disturbances in muscle strength will have an impact on their daily activities. The purpose of this study was to determine the difference between muscle strength before and after being given Range Of Motion (ROM) between the intervention and control groups. This study includes a type of quantitative research and a quasi-experimental pre-post test with control group research method. This study used a group of subjects that met the researcher's criteria, namely the control group and the intervention group. The sampling method was purposive sampling, so the number of samples was determined, namely 30 people from 54 populations, the data collection technique used was a questionnaire, 15 respondents were given Range Of Motion intervention in a week and 15 respondents were given to the control group. Based on the results of the analysis of muscle strength before and after the intervention group given ROM using the Paired Samples T-Test in the intervention group obtained a p value = 0.004 (p <0.05), while in the control group p value = 0.082 (p > 0.05), indicating that the intervention group there is a significant influence between Range Of Motion on increasing muscle strength in stroke patients while in the control group there is no significant increase. The results of the test of the difference in muscle strength scores in the pretest of the intervention group and the control group P value 0.704, while in the posttest group of the intervention group and the control group P value 0.285. The results of the study based on the analysis with the Paired T-test showed that the muscle strength scores before and after the intervention group was given ROM, Test obtained P value = 0.004 (p <0.05) and the control group P value = 0.082 (p > 0.05).
