Current status and future trends of intelligent construction of pharmacy intravenous admixture service in China:visual analysis based upon CiteSpace
OBJECTIVE To visualize the intelligent construction and development of PIVAS in China over the last two decades by CiteSpace software.METHODS The relevant articles on the development of PIVAS intelligence were retrieved from the databases of China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang and VIP.NoteExpress and CiteSpace soft-ware suites were utilized for visualizing the number of publications,authors,institutions and keywords.RESULTS A total of 121 articles were included and the largest number of articles appeared in 2021(23 articles).And 241 keywords were counted and 12 clusters were formed for keyword analysis.Top 5 keywords were pharmacy intravenous admixture service,information,auto-mation,centralized intravenous drug dispensing center and intelligence.According to the statistics of the publishing institutions of PIVAS intelligent construction,Hebei General Hospital and First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University submitted the largest number of publications(6 articles).Among 350 authors,Pang Guoxun had the largest number of publications(7 articles).Among 60 statistical journals,China Pharmacy and Straits Pharmacy predominated(12 articles).According to the statistics of applying intelligent construction in PIVAS in China,use of intelligent equipment could significantly minimize deployment errors and improve work efficiency.And its application outcomes were excellent.CONCLUSION The intelligent development of PIVAS in China has been rapid.Employing information management and automation equipment for constructing an intelligent ser-vice platform,it can significantly boost work efficiency,optimize workflows and effectively promote the innovation of pharmaceuti-cal services.It represents a future direction of the construction and development of PIVAS at modem medical institutions.
