Abstract:
Dental ergonomics provides an overview of dentists\' work efficiency. The objective of this study was to obtain quantitative information and produce a visualization of the network of scientific publications on the topic of ergonomics and dentistry using bibliometric analysis. Data mining was conducted using the Scopus database and Boolean expressions (ergonom* AND dentist*) on 14 April 2023. Data extraction and analysis were performed using Open Refine version 3.5.2., VOSviewer version 1.6.17., VOSviewer thesaurus, Microsoft Excel, and Tableau Professional version 2020.1.2. A total of 682 documents were identified, with the United States having the largest number of documents and citations (89 documents, 1321 citations). Work, Dentistry Today, and the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health were the top three sources. Ergonomics and musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are two of the very prominent keywords, with research topics covering prevalence, causes, factors related to causes, prevention, assessment, rehabilitation, evaluation, and intervention. There was no research on ergonomic interventions that collaborated with human factors and ergonomics (HFE). We conclude that the trending topic of dental ergonomics research topics around the world is centered on MSDs. The future research challenge is to apply HFE science to improve the health, safety, efficiency, and quality of dentists\' work.
摘要:
牙科人体工程学概述了牙医的工作效率。这项研究的目的是获得定量信息,并使用文献计量分析对有关人体工程学和牙科的科学出版物网络进行可视化。2023年4月14日,使用Scopus数据库和布尔表达式(ergonom*ANDdentist*)进行了数据挖掘。使用OpenRefine版本3.5.2进行数据提取和分析。,VOSviewer版本1.6.17。,VOSviewer词库,MicrosoftExcel,和TableauProfessional版本2020.1.2。共识别出682份文件,美国拥有最多的文件和引文(89份文件,1321次引用)。工作,今天的牙科,《国际环境研究和公共卫生杂志》是排名前三的来源。人体工程学和肌肉骨骼疾病(MSD)是两个非常突出的关键词,研究主题涵盖患病率,原因,与原因有关的因素,预防,评估,康复,评估,和干预。没有关于与人为因素和人体工程学(HFE)合作的人体工程学干预措施的研究。我们得出的结论是,全球牙科人体工程学研究主题的趋势主题是以MSD为中心。未来的研究挑战是应用HFE科学来改善健康,安全,效率,和牙医的工作质量。
