This study was conducted to determine the relationship between body mass index to the degree of genu osteoarthritis. The design of this study was observational analytic with a cross-sectional study approach, using consecutive sampling. The tools used are medical record paper, weight scales, staturmeter, X photo articulation genu. Parameters examined were gender, age, weight (BB), height (TB), grade osteoarthritis (OA) genu Kellgren-Lawrence. It is conducted at Tarakan Hospital, Jakarta. The results showed 67,5% of respondents were female, 67,5% of respondents with OA genu aged > 50 years, 67,5% of respondents with BMI ≥ 23, 17,5% OA genu with grade Kellgren-Lawrence 1, 22,5% OA genu with grade Kellgren-Lawrence 2, 30% OA genu with grade Kellgren-Lawrence 3 and 30% OA genu with Kellgren-Lawrence 4. Results of the chi-square test have a relationship between body mass index (p = 0.042) on the degree of osteoarthritis genu in Tarakan Hospital, Jakarta.
