Falls are one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among older people, directly impacting their functionality and quality of life. Intrinsic capacity, composed of physical and mental factors essential for autonomy, has a crucial role in preventing these events. A scoping review will be conducted to map the risk factors for falls in older people living at home, associated with the domains of intrinsic capacity.
