Background: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the leading causes of pain and reduced quality of life among the elderly. Non-pharmacological therapies, such as active Range of Motion (ROM) exercises, can improve joint flexibility and reduce pain.

Purpose: To determine the effect of active ROM exercises on reducing pain scores in elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis at Puskesmas Tajinan Malang.

Method: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. A total of 30 elderly respondents with knee osteoarthritis were selected using accidental sampling. The intervention consisted of active ROM exercises performed twice daily for five days. Pain levels were measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test and Spearman correlation test.

Results: The findings showed a significant reduction in pain scores after the active ROM intervention, with p = 0.000 (p < 0.05). Before the intervention, 73.3% of respondents experienced moderate pain and 13.3% severe pain, whereas after the intervention, 90% reported mild pain and none reported severe pain. The Spearman test showed a strong negative correlation (r = -0.730), indicating that more frequent ROM exercises were associated with lower pain scores.

Conclusion: Active ROM exercises are effective in reducing pain scores among elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis and can be recommended as a non-pharmacological intervention in primary healthcare settings.
