Methods: In the review, seven databases were searched for articles published from January 2017 to August 2022.
Data was collected by dividing into management and utilization of health examinations for disabled adults. Then, data synthesis was conducted by subdividing the data into intrapersonal, interpersonal, and environmental factors.

The facilitators related to health examinations were mild disability and experiences of high satisfaction with medical services as intrapersonal factors, skilled healthcare practitioners as interpersonal factors, and easy-to-understand materials as environmental factors. The barriers related to health examinations included severe disability and lack of awareness related to health examinations as intrapersonal factors, lack of therapeutic relationships with healthcare practitioners as interpersonal factors, and inconvenient equipment and facilities as environmental factors.
