Visualization Analysis of Research Progress and Trend of Internet Hospital Based on CiteSpace
Objective To understand the research progress and hotspots of Internet hospitals,and to provide reference for the construction of high-quality Internet hospitals in China.Methods CiteSpace6.2.1 R software was used to analyze the academic journals related to Internet hospitals included in the CNKI academic journal database.The source categories were Peking University Core,CSSCI and CSCD.The included literature was visually analyzed in order to understand the research status and hotspots of Internet hospitals.Results A total of 215 literatures were included.In 2015,the Internet hospital literature with high academic level appeared,and the number of literatures increased year by year.The source journals of the literature were widely distributed,but most of them were in the field of hospital management,among which the three keywords of"Internet hospital""Internet+medical"and"Internet"were the most prominent.The research was progressing from basic theoretical research such as development model and policy environment to stages such as operation management and experience summary.However,there was still a lack of empirical research with sufficient data,so a unified evaluation standard and research method for Internet hospitals had not been formed.Conclusion China's Internet medical care is in a stage of rapid development,and the depth and breadth of Internet hospital research should be continuously expanded in the future.
