Abstract
Objective: To review research on pressure injury (PI) prevention published between 2018 and 2023 using bibliometric analysis methods to identify trends in the field over the past 5 years.
Methods: The author queried the Web of Science database using the keywords "pressure injury or pressure ulcer and prevention" to access the bibliometric data of relevant studies. The program RStudio version 4.2.1 and the utility package Biblioshiny were used for data analysis.
Results: A total of 1,110 English-language studies that focused on PI prevention were analyzed, including articles, reviews, proceeding papers, and early access articles. Articles were published by 114 sources. The average publication age was 2.57 years, and the average number of citations per publication was 5.88. The average number of authors per publication was 4.63, with an international coauthorship rate of 19.46%. The most cited articles were prevalence and incidence studies, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses. An examination of journals with research related to PI prevention highlighted the Journal of Tissue Viability and Advances in Skin & Wound Care as prominent journals.
Conclusions: Researchers and clinical nurses working in the field of PI prevention should research the identified trending topics (eg, COVID-19, intensive care, and classification) and aim to publish in journals with a high number of citations or substantive contributions in this area.
期刊介绍:
A peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary journal, Advances in Skin & Wound Care is highly regarded for its unique balance of cutting-edge original research and practical clinical management articles on wounds and other problems of skin integrity. Each issue features CME/CE for physicians and nurses, the first journal in the field to regularly offer continuing education for both disciplines.
