Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Design: This study was conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study Methods: The study was conducted with 80 individuals, 40 of whom were in the intervention group and 40 in the control group, who received inpatient treatment in the neurology service of a regional city hospital, and met the inclusion criteria. Planned ROM exercises were applied to the individuals in the intervention group 3 times a day for 2 weeks, and no application was made to the control group other than routine treatment. Data were collected by the researcher using the Questionnaire Form, Patient Information Form, Functional Independence Scale and Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale.

Intervention Group
Patients in this group continued their routine medical treatment program without any treatment. Moreover, ROM exercises were performed by the researcher and health personnel trained by the researcher 3 times a day for 2 weeks, approximately 30 minutes.
ROM Exercises
The patients were evaluated by the physician, they were put into practice when their condition was stable within the first 72 hours. In addition to their routine treatments, according to the ROM exercise protocol, which was created by taking expert opinions and reviewing the literature ROM exercises were performed by the researcher and health personnel trained by the researcher 3 times a day for 2 weeks, approximately 30 minutes. The movements were started with the upper extremity on the unaffected side and then moved to the affected upper extremity. After the exercise applied to the affected upper extremity was finished, the same exercise was applied to the intact lower extremity and the affected lower extremity. Only the resistance points were mobilized and the exercise applied in each joint was repeated at least three times without applying extra force.
