Abstract

This study aims to assist nurses in providing better nursing care to patients by explaining the effect of handball therapy on physical immobility in patients with post-operative upper extremity fractures. The results of the study showed that the nursing assessments carried out on patients 1, 2 and 3 were in accordance with existing theories, the data obtained were in accordance with existing theoretical studies so that the data could be used as material to determine actions at the next stage. Conclusion, From the assessment of the three patients who had been given exercises (ROM) using handball therapy S: The patient said he was able to perform simple mobilization movements (ROM) on his right hand after surgery, the patient said when moving his right hand it was no longer so painful O: K.U is good, the patient appears to be able to perform ROM movements on the fingers of his right hand and is able to lift both hands A: Physical Mobility Disorders Resolved P: Maintain intervention.
