This study's literature search relied on data from ScienceDirect, Scopus, EBSCO, ProQuest, ClinicalKey, SpringerLink, ProQuest, and Pubmed. By using the keywords “quality of life” AND “tuberculosis” AND “treatment” OR “perception” OR “experience”. This scoping review leverages a data method derived from 9 articles published between 2016 and 2021. Physical weakness, financial decline, psychological, emotional stress, depression, and stigma experienced by patients are all common problems. Review Methods: The article screening method is used for the review, and it is guided by the PRISMA flowchart. Extraction is carried out on Google Sheets, and synthesis is carried out from the extraction results. Results: This scoping review provides a comprehensive overview of three components of patient impact: 1) physical impact, 2) mental impact experienced by tuberculosis patients, and 3) social impact of tuberculosis patients. There are also six issues to consider: 1) physical disorders (weakness, cough, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, shortness of breath), 2) financial decline, 3) psychological disorders (sad, worried), 4) emotional, 5) depression, and 6) stigma.
