Abstract

Aim: Although the number of global studies on mechanical ventilation (MV) therapy, which plays an important role in the life process of patients in the intensive care unit, has increased, there is still no bibliometric research on this subject in the literature. This study, it was aimed to determine trend topics and global productivity by holistically analyzing scientific articles on MV published between 1980 and 2021 using various statistical methods and bibliometric approaches.
Material and Method: Articles on MV published between 1980 and 2021 were downloaded from the Web of Science (WoS) database and analyzed using various statistical methods. Spearman's correlation coefficient was used for correlation studies. Network visualization maps were used to identify the most effective studies with global collaborations, trend topics, and citation analysis.
Results: The study, which was in the category of 5323 articles out of a total of 10135 publications, was analyzed. The first 3 countries that contributed the most to the literature were the USA (n=1740), France (448), and Canada (386). The most active author was Laurent Brochard (n=50). The top 3 most active institutions were Assistance Publique Hopitaux Paris (224), University of Toronto (216), and League of European Research Universities (169). The top 3 journals that published the most articles were Critical Care Medicine (289), Chest (204), and Intensive Care Medicine (166). Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was highly effective in article productivity (r=0.719, p<0.001).
Conclusion: In this study on MV, it was shared the statistical analysis information of 5323 articles published since 1980. With the developing technology, the usage area of MV is increasing and this situation is also reflected in the publications in the literature. It was also observed that the number of studies on MV increased with the COVID-19 (SARS CoV-2) pandemic. This study, which includes the bibliometric analysis of MV by summarizing the literature, will guide the authors who want to study in this area.
