ABSTRACT
Aim: The aim of the study is to reveal the changes in the studies on the right to health over the years and to identify the main themes about the field. Materials and Methods: The data used in the study were obtained from the Web of Science (WOS) Core Collection database. The 456 publications obtained as a result of the inclusion and exclusion criteria were analysed with performance analysis and scientific mapping techniques from bibliometric analysis techniques. Citation analysis was performed to analyse the performance of countries, institutions, authors and journals, and co-citation and common word analysis were performed to reveal the study subjects and concepts of the field. R-Bibliometrix and CiteSpace programmes were used to perform bibliometric analyses. Results and Conclusion: The results of the research reveal that the studies conducted in the field of right to health tend to increase. It is seen that the field of right to health is organised around four clusters as "human rights-based approach, global health, universal health coverage and access", but only the cluster of "universal health coverage" remains up-to-date. In terms of keywords, it is seen that the keywords "rights language, to-health litigation, human right, health care, reproductive health right" are the concepts currently used in the field.

Amaç: Çalışmanın amacı sağlık hakkı alanında gerçekleştirilen çalışmaların yıllar içerisindeki değişimini ortaya koymak ve alan hakkında ana temaları belirlemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırmada kullanılan veriler Web of Science (WOS) Core Collection veri tabanından elde edilmiştir. Gerçekleştirilen dâhil etme ve hariç tutma kriterleri sonucu elde edilen 456 yayın bibliyometrik analiz tekniklerinden performans analizi ve bilimsel haritalama tekniği ile analiz edilmiştir. Ülkeler, kurumlar, yazarlar ve dergilere ilişkin performans analizini gerçekleştirmek için atıf analizi, alanın çalışma konularını ve kavramlarını ortaya koymak için ortak atıf ve ortak kelime analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bibliyometrik analizlerin gerçekleştirilmesinde ise R-Bibliometrix ve CiteSpace programları kullanılmıştır. Bulgular ve Sonuç: Araştırma sonuçları sağlık hakkı alanında gerçekleştirilen çalışmaların artış gösterme eğiliminde olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Sağlık hakkı alanının “insan hakları temelli yaklaşım, küresel sağlık, evrensel sağlık kapsamı ve erişim” olarak dört küme çevresinde toplandığı ancak yalnızca “evrensel sağlık kapsamı” kümesinin güncelliğini koruduğu görülmektedir. Anahtar kelimeler açısından bakıldığında ise “rights language, to-health litigation, human right, health care, reproductive health right” anahtar kelimelerinin alanda güncel olarak kullanılan kavramlar olduğu görülmektedir.
