Abstract

Introduction

Burnout is a serious issue for caregivers, patients, and healthcare institutions. It is considered a significant problem among nurses, with emergency nurses being particularly affected. This study aims to examine the studies conducted on emergency nursing and burnout using bibliometric analysis and scientific mapping methods.

Methods

This study employs bibliometric analysis and scientific mapping methods. The data were obtained through a search conducted in the Web of Science (WoS) database. During the search, the keywords “emergency nursing” and “burnout” were used. A total of 145 studies indexed in the SSCI and SCI-EXPANDED categories were identified. Due to the continuous influx of scientific publications in the database, the search was conducted on a single day, October 23, 2024.

Results

The research identified a total of 145 studies. The highest number of publications related to emergency nursing and burnout (16 %, n = 23) was recorded in 2022. The journals with the most publications were International Emergency Nursing (32.9 %, n = 46) and Journal of Emergency Nursing (29 %, n = 42). The most frequently used keyword in the studies was “burnout,” which was commonly associated with all other keywords. The United States emerged as the country with the highest number of publications on the subject. Additionally, the majority of the studies were published in English (98 %, n = 142). The most-cited publication, with 446 citations, was authored by Adriaenssens, De Gucht, and Maes.

Discussion

This study aims to comprehensively address the current state of research on emergency nursing and burnout, highlighting its prevalence in the literature. The findings indicate that burnout and its associated challenges among emergency nurses warrant increasing attention. This research emphasizes the importance of developing more effective strategies to combat burnout and underscores the need for ongoing awareness and research to safeguard the well-being of nurses.
