Sample in 40 participants were divided into the intervention group and control group and included in this study according to the following criteria: post-stroke period of <12 months with hemiparesis, age of ≥18 years, and willingness to participate in the study. The intervention was carried out by nurses by providing education for 2 consecutive days and mentoring for 5 consecutive days, while the control group was given standard care and measured using a grip track, handheld dynamometer, and goniometer examination on June to September 2019. For the intervention group, paired t-test analysis confirmed a significant increase in the mean upper extremity muscle strength before (35.770 ± 46.063) and after (51.073 ± 50.866) the 7 day intervention ( p = .002), whereas the control group showed a value 36.570 ± 33.684 and then 31.400 ± 31.760 p = .256 and lower extremity strength before (3.627 ± 1.585) and after (4.365 ± 1.698) the 7-days intervention ( p = .000), whereas the control group showed a value 3.657 ± 1.671 and then 4.043 ± 1.849 p = .013. Almost all the items assessed from Range of Motion (ROM) in the upper and lower extremities showed a significant increase ( p < .05). Supportive-educative ROM exercise significantly contributed to an increase in the average muscle strength and ROM in post-stroke patients. ## Keywords - Medicine - Stroke (engine) - Physical therapy - Range of motion - Hemiparesis - Grip strength - Physical medicine and rehabilitation - Internal medicine - Engineering - Mechanical engineering - Angiography --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
