Frailty in people living with HIV is a critical concern due to its significant impact on health, functional capacity and overall quality of life. This scoping review aims to synthesise comprehensive information on frailty in this population, establish foundational evidence and identify research gaps, with particular emphasis on the need for interventions targeting multidimensional frailty among community-dwelling people living with HIV.
This scoping review adheres to the Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines and the framework developed by Arksey and O'Malley. The research questions will focus on frailty among community-dwelling people living with HIV. The literature search will encompass four databases: MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL and the Cochrane Library, covering studies published from 1 January 2001 to 30 June 2025. Only peer-reviewed articles published in English will be included. Both quantitative and qualitative studies will be considered. The inclusion criteria will be guided by the population-conceptual-context (PCC) framework. The findings will be reported in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews checklist.
Ethical approval is not required as this study involves an analysis of previously published literature. The findings will inform the development of interventions for frailty in people living with HIV and will be disseminated through academic conferences, peer-reviewed publications and expert seminars.
由于虚弱对艾滋病毒感染者的健康、功能能力和整体生活质量有重大影响，因此这一问题备受关注。本综述旨在综合有关该人群虚弱状况的全面信息，建立基础证据并识别研究空白，尤其强调针对社区居住的艾滋病毒感染者多维虚弱状况进行干预的必要性。
本综述遵循乔安娜·布里格斯研究所指南以及阿克西和奥马利制定的框架。研究问题将聚焦于社区居住的艾滋病毒感染者的虚弱状况。文献检索将涵盖四个数据库：医学文献数据库（MEDLINE）、荷兰医学文摘数据库（Embase）、护理学与健康领域数据库（CINAHL）和考科蓝图书馆，涵盖2001年1月1日至2025年6月30日发表的研究。仅纳入以英文发表的同行评审文章。定量和定性研究均会被考虑在内。纳入标准将以人群 - 概念 - 背景（PCC）框架为指导。研究结果将按照系统评价与Meta分析扩展版范围综述的首选报告项目清单进行报告。
由于本研究涉及对先前发表文献的分析，因此无需伦理批准。研究结果将为艾滋病毒感染者虚弱状况干预措施的制定提供参考，并将通过学术会议、同行评审出版物和专家研讨会进行传播
