Health management literature is critical in facilitating effective leadership and management in the health sector by imparting the knowledge and understanding required in health service planning, organization, coordination, and management. Through an exhaustive bibliometric examination, the current state of the “healthcare management” literature was assessed in this study, illuminating potential future developments in the field. By utilizing an extensive compilation of articles from the Web of Science (WoS) database, this study endeavors to scrutinize patterns in scientific inquiry, assess advancements made on subjects, and underscore significant fields of cooperation and scholarly input. An in-depth, extensive analysis revealed that three decades of research yielded over 46,000 publications; the number of publications has increased by six, particularly in the last ten years, and the United States and the United Kingdom produced most of the publications. Analysis identifying influential journals and authors in the field revealed that it is the focus of attention of health professionals, especially nurses. Although the COVID-19 pandemic has been recognized as the primary public health concern, scholarly attention has shifted towards a sustainable health system incorporating technology-supported preventive health practices and intelligence. To thoroughly comprehend the theoretical progression of health management research, its capacity to tackle worldwide issues, and its growth potential, the study’s findings are a valuable scholarly resource that offers practitioners, policymakers, and researchers a comprehensive overview.

Yapay zekayla geliştirilmiş sürdürülebilir bir sağlık sistemine doğru: sağlık yönetimi araştırmalarından çıkarımlar

Öz

Sağlık yönetimi literatürü, sağlık hizmetlerinin planlanması, organizasyonu, koordinasyonu ve yönetiminde gerekli olan bilgi ve anlayışın aktarılması yoluyla sağlık sektöründe etkili liderlik ve yönetimin kolaylaştırılması açısından kritik öneme sahiptir. Kapsamlı bir bibliyometrik inceleme yoluyla, bu çalışmada “sağlık yönetimi” literatürünün mevcut durumu değerlendirilerek alanda gelecekte yaşanabilecek potansiyel gelişmelere ışık tutulmuştur. Web of Science (WoS) veri tabanındaki kapsamlı bir makale derlemesinden yararlanan bu çalışma, bilimsel araştırmadaki kalıpları incelemeyi, konularda kaydedilen ilerlemeleri değerlendirmeyi ve önemli iş birliği ve bilimsel girdi alanlarının altını çizmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Derinlemesine bir analiz, otuz yıllık araştırmalar sonucunda 46 binden fazla yayının üretildiği ve özellikle son on yılda yayın sayısının altı katına çıktığı, yayınların çoğunun ABD ve İngiltere’de üretildiği belirlenmiştir. Alandaki etkili dergi ve yazarları belirleyen bu analiz; sağlık profesyonellerinin ve özellikle hemşirelerin ilgi odağı olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Her ne kadar COVID-19 salgını alandaki birincil halk sağlığı sorunu olarak kabul edilse de bilimsel ilgi, teknoloji destekli koruyucu sağlık uygulamaları ve zekâsını birleştiren sürdürülebilir bir sağlık sistemine yönelmiştir. Bu çalışmanın bulguları; sağlık yönetimi araştırmasının teorik ilerleyişini, dünya çapındaki sorunları çözme kapasitesini ve büyüme potansiyelini tam olarak kavramak için uygulayıcılara, politika yapıcılara ve araştırmacılara kapsamlı bir genel bakış sunmaktadır.
