Abstract

Introduction – Elderly is a time when a person will experience a decrease in body functions both physically, mentally and socially. One of the physical declines felt by the elderly is the decline in joint movement. The reduced elasticity of the joints will make stiffness in the joints resulting in joint pain. Range of motion (ROM) is one of the activities that can be used to relieve joint pain.

Purpose – The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of joint motion exercises (ROM) on joint pain felt in the elderly.

Methodology/Approach – This study used a quasi-experimental pre-post-test in the treatment group and the control group. The number of subjects was 52 people with 26 people in the treatment group and 26 people in the control group. The treatment group was given joint motion exercises 3x/week for 6 weeks. The statistical test in the treatment group used the paired sample T-Test, the control group used the Wilcoxon signed rank test and for the comparison test, the Mann Whitney test was used.

Results – The results of the study in the treatment group showed that ROM had an effect on reducing joint pain in the elderly (p = 0.001), in the control group there was no significant change (p = 0.265) There was a difference in the effect of reducing joint pain in the treatment group and the control group (p = 0.001).

Conclusion – ROM exercises can decrease joint pain in the elderly.
