Objective  To systematically analyze the relevant research on the application of preoperative exercise training in the pre-rehabilitation of elderly hip fracture patients, identify the specific content, outcome indicators, and application effects of exercise intervention, in order to provide reference for medical staff to carry out relevant interventions. Methods  Computer searches were conducted on domestic and foreign databases such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, China Biomedical Literature Database, VIP, Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science. The search period was from the establishment of the database to January 2024. The scoping review method was used to screen, summarize, and analyze the included studies. Results A total of 10 studies were included, including 3 randomized controlled trial, 1 quasi experimental study, 5 retrospective studies and 1 case report. Preoperative exercise preparation includes completing relevant examinations and providing sufficient pain relief. The types of exercise include adaptive training, resistance training, and aerobic exercise. Monitor the patient’s symptoms, signs, and adverse reactions throughout the exercise process. Outcome measures include physical activity and function, pain, average length of hospital stay, and perioperative complications. Conclusions  Preoperative exercise training has a positive effect on elderly patients with hip fracture. Elderly patients with hip fracture should be well prepared for preoperative exercise, based on adaptive training, with resistance exercise as the main focus, while monitoring the patient’s physical signs and adverse events during exercise.
