Objective To analyze the research status of value-based medicine at home and abroad based on CiteSpace visualization knowledge map,and provide reference and direction for the research of value-based medicine in China.Methods Using the visualization software CiteSpace 6.2.R7,the articles in China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Web of Science database from 2009 to 2023 were retrieved with the keywords"value-based medicine"and"value-based healthcare"in this paper.Meanwhile,they were analyzed from the aspects of publishing quantity,publishing country/region,publishing institution and keywords,etc.Results A total of 1627 Chinese articles and 1715 English articles were included,and the publication volume of English articles continued to increase,while Chinese articles remained relatively stable.The publishing institutions were mainly universities.Chinese articles research focused on value,medical equipment and application value,while English articles research focused on influence,quality and management,etc.Conclusion The research on value-based medicine of China is in the stage of sustainable development,and there are some problems such as weak systematicness and lack of interdisciplinary cooperation.We should combine foreign experience,carry out multi-dimensional research on value-based medicine,and explore a set of value-based medicine model suitable for China's national conditions.
