Patient and public involvement (PPI) in research has the potential to improve research validity and relevance.
To explore how PPI has been carried out and how its impacts have been reported in occupational therapy (OT) health research.
Scoping review based on a search in four databases for OT research with descriptions of PPI, published between 2010 and 2020.
Across the 17 included studies PPI was reported in all stages of research. Descriptions of how PPI was carried out varied across the studies, and details with respect to the kind of approach used were lacking. Positive impacts on research design, research ethics, public collaborators and researchers were reported, but only anecdotally. Reflections and challenges related to PPI were also addressed.
In future studies, comprehensiveness and consistency is needed to document the diversity of how PPI is carried out in OT health research.
患者和公众参与（PPI）研究具有提高研究有效性和相关性的潜力。
探讨患者和公众参与（PPI）在职业治疗（OT）健康研究中的实施情况及其影响的报告方式。
基于对 2010 年至 2020 年期间描述患者和公众参与（PPI）的 OT 研究的四个数据库的搜索，进行了范围综述。
在 17 项纳入的研究中，患者和公众参与（PPI）在研究的所有阶段都有报告。对患者和公众参与（PPI）实施方式的描述在研究之间存在差异，并且缺乏关于所使用方法类型的详细信息。报告了对研究设计、研究伦理、公众合作者和研究人员产生积极影响的情况，但仅为传闻证据。还讨论了与患者和公众参与（PPI）相关的反思和挑战。
在未来的研究中，需要全面和一致地记录患者和公众参与（PPI）在 OT 健康研究中的实施方式的多样性。
