Fractures will affect the patient’s activities and quality of life. In surgery treated fracture commonly suggest to do non-weight-bearing and immobilization for 6 weeks. However, in several years there’s various study related to feasibility of early weight-bearing (EWB), EWB is performed by instructing the patient to apply load bearing according to the patient’s tolerance. <strong>Research Methods</strong>: This study uses a narrative review method with the PICOS framework. The data search was obtain on the Pubmed and Google Scholar databases. The data used are international journals published in 2016-2022 that have through screening process. <strong>Research Results</strong>: The analysis outcome was 5 international journals that discuss the effectiveness of EWB. Based on these data, it shows that there is effect in the form of feasibility and minimal complications. <strong>Conclusion</strong>: The analysis based on the data obtained show that there was effect of EWB on lower extremity fracture.</em></p>}, number={1}, journal={JURNAL KEPERAWATAN DAN FISIOTERAPI (JKF)}, author={Wardojo, Sri Sunaringsih Ika and Djuliana, Salsabila Fernanda and Rosadi, Rakhmad}, year={2022}, month={Oct.}, pages={110–114} }
