Abstract

Objective: To examine the bibliometric analysis of research on the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia. Method: Data were collected from the ‘Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection’ database in April 2024 and analyzed bibliometrically by performance analysis, scientific mapping, and bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer, R Studio 4.3.3, and Biblioshiny. The research sample consisted of 284 articles. The strength of association method was used to normalize the link strength between items. Results: The most collaboration in the field was found to be Torres, Antoni (TLS=18) from the green cluster. According to the circle size, the most cited journal with the subject is Critical Care Medicine (number of citations=875; TLS=42857). From the size of the circles, it was found that ventilator-associated pneumonia (occurrences=157), intensive care unit (occurrences=37), and mechanical ventilation (occurrences=26) were the most frequently used keywords in publications. Conclusion: Among the publications on the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia, the most cited publications were found to be studies with a high level of evidence, such as meta-analyses and randomized controlled trials.

Ventilatörle İlişkili Pnömoniyi Önleme: Bibliyometrik Bir Çalışma

Abstract

Amaç: Ventilatörle ilişkili pnömoniyi önleme üzerine yapılan araştırmaların bibliyometrik analizini incelemektir. Yöntem: Veriler, Nisan 2024 tarihinde “Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection” veri tabanından toplandı ve VOSviewer, R Studio 4.3.3 programı ve Biblioshiny programı kullanılarak performans analizi, bilimsel haritalama ile bibliyometrik olarak analiz edildi. Araştırma örneklemini 284 makale oluşturdu. Öğeler arasındaki bağlantı gücünün normalleştirilmesinde ilişkilendirme gücü yöntemi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Alanda en fazla iş birliği yeşil kümeden Torres, Antoni (TBG=18) olduğu bulundu. Daire büyüklüğüne göre konu ile en fazla atıf alan dergi Critical Care Medicine (atıf saysı=875; TBG=42857) dir. Dairelerin büyüklüğünden, ventilator-associated pneumonia (kullanım sıklığı=157), intensive care unit (kullanım sıklığı =37), mechanical ventilation (kullanım sıklığı =26) yayınlarda en fazla kullanılan anahtar kelimeler olduğu saptandı. Sonuç: Ventilatörle ilişkili pnömoniyi önlemeye yönelik yayınlar arasından en fazla atıf alan yayınların meta analiz ve randomize kontrollü çalışmalar gibi kanıt düzeyi yüksek olan araştırmalar olduğu belirlendi.
