OBJECTIVE The objective of this scoping review is to gather the available evidence on metal hypersensitivity to determine the extent of the problem and identify gaps in the evidence about screening practices. INTRODUCTION Hypersensitivity to metal was first reported in 1966. Since this time, the use of metal in prosthetic devices has increased with an associated rise in reported hypersensitivity reaction to other metals. Symptoms of metal hypersensitivity can be subtle, and it is unclear whether clinicians are aware of or routinely ask about metal hypersensitivity when documenting allergies. This can lead to a delay in diagnosis, which puts patients at risk of poor outcomes. Hence there is a need to map the available evidence on hypersensitivity reaction in people who receive metallic device implantation. INCLUSION CRITERIA The review will consider studies published in the English language and that include patients who undergo procedures involving metal implantations. All available literature from the 1960 s to the present will be included in this review. METHODS The proposed scoping review will be conducted in accordance with JBI methodology for scoping reviews. Searches will be generated in multiple databases and updated as needed. Results will be imported into Covidence where titles, abstracts, and full articles will be screened according to the inclusion criteria. Data will be extracted and findings will be presented in tabular form with a narrative summary.
