Visual Analysis of Hotspots and Trends of Medical Record Management in China Based on VOSviewer and CiteSpace
Objectives Through the visual analysis of bibliometrics in the field of medical record management in China,the research hotspot of medical record management was understood and the research frontier trend was discussed.Methods This study used 2318 related research papers included in the CNKI database from January 1st,2014,to May 31st,2024,as the data source.Bibliometric software such as VOSviewer and CiteSpace were used to analyze publication trends,researchers,journals,research institutions,as well as keywords of the relevant literature.Results A total of 2263 articles were included.The number of articles published from 2014 to 2024 had experienced a plateau period and a gradual decline period;authors such as He Yi(12 articles)and Gao Jian(10 articles)had written more articles,forming a small-scale sub-network structure.what's more,the research institution network density was 0.023.In addition,The《Chinese Medical Records》was the journal that published the most articles related to medical records management.The keywords"informatization"and"information management"had a higher strength of citation burst,with values of 6.00 and 4.39,respectively.And"big data"had the longest duration of strength,and together with"satisfaction","archive management","quality control"and"public hospitals"were the main research hotspots and frontiers in the field of medical record management.Conclusions In the medical record management field of our country,the volume of publications in the past 10 years had been relatively stable in the early stages,but there had been a downward trend in the past 3 years.Overall,the research had become relatively mature.However,collaboration between authors and institutions was not yet tight.The hotspots in the field of medical records management mainly focused on medical records quality control,refined medical records management through big data,patient satisfaction,and the high-quality development of public hospitals,which were the current and future research hotspots and frontiers.
