Objective To perform a scoping review of the current literature on prehabilitation interventions for liver transplant candidates，supplying evidence to guide the formulation of standardized prehabilitation protocols. Methods Comprehensive searches were performed in several databases，including PubMed，Embase，Cochrane Library，Web of Science，CINAHL，SinoMed，CNKI，Wanfang，and VIP Database. The search period extended from the creation data of each database up to March 10，2025. Totally 2 researchers independently carried out the literature screening and data extraction. Results A total of 16 studies were included. Preoperative rehabilitation interventions primarily include multimodal exercise training, personalized nutritional support, and psychological or behavioral interventions. The intervention team was multidisciplinary and the intervention setting covered hospitals and homes. The evaluation indicators comprised feasibility metrics，health-related quality of life，exercise-related metrics，physical function，postoperative complication rates，length of hospital stay，cardiopulmonary function，and nutritional status. Conclusion Currently，multimodal prehabilitation strategies for liver transplant patients remain in the early exploratory stage. There is an urgent need for high-quality randomized controlled trials to identify optimal intervention models，clarify key determinants of intervention timing，and establish a comprehensive and systematic evaluation framework to facilitate the clinical implementation of prehabilitation in liver transplantation.
