Abstract

Introduction: intersectionality has been used as a tool to understand and address health inequalities, especially in the context of health care for people with HIV. However, its application in the development of intervention strategies and care protocols is scarce. Method: a systematic scoping bibliographic review was carried out to identify studies that use intersectionality in the field of health, as a tool for the development of advanced information analysis, development of instruments and protocols associated with people with HIV. Databases such as Scopus, PubMed and Clarivate Analytics Wos of Science were used. Results: intersectionality has been used as a tool for the development of basic frameworks for the development of protocols and measurement instruments, its use in the development of intervention programs is scarce. Conclusions: intersectionality is a valuable tool to understand health inequalities, but its application in the development of intervention strategies and care protocols is limited. It is necessary to develop research that uses intersectionality to create health intervention and professional training programs that address health inequalities and reduce the stigma associated with HIV.
