未经批准:药物安全是医疗保健中的一个重要问题。关于老年人用药安全的研究已经采取了广泛的方法,产生了一系列的建议。在这个关头,有必要确定主要贡献者,并确定主要研究课题的当前发展状况。
未经评估:本研究旨在总结老年人用药安全的最新技术,发现重大成就,关键主题,和新兴趋势。
UNASSIGNED:在2000年1月1日至2021年12月31日期间,搜索了WebofScienceCoreCollection(WOSCC)数据库以获取相关文档。从WOS引文报告中确定了年度产出和引文。采用CiteSpace和VOSviewer进行文献计量分析和可视化,包括国家/地区的分布,组织,作者和期刊,并对共同引用的参考文献和关键词进行了分析。
UNASSIGNED:共检索到1,638篇文献进行文献计量分析,每个文档产生34.29次引用。在过去的二十年里,出版物有所增加,2019年达到177项产出。我们的数据库涵盖71个国家/地区,2,347个组织,和7,040作者。就科学活动而言,美国以604种出版物(36.87%)排名第一。我们将悉尼大学确定为最多产的组织(53种出版物)。J.T.Hanlon,J.H.Gurwitz,D.O\'Mahony,就出版物和引文而言,G.Onder是最有影响力的研究人员。《美国老年医学会杂志》以89篇(5.43%)论文排名第一。在主要研究方向上,从共同引用的参考文献和关键词分析中确定了三个主题:(1)评估与多重用药和潜在不适当用药相关的患病率和变量;(2)分析涉及药剂师的干预措施及其相关影响;(3)与药物使用或药物护理相关的患者体验和看法.
未经评估:关于老年人用药安全的研究在过去20年中取得了显著进展。美国,特别是,为这一领域做出了重要贡献。多重用药和潜在的不当用药,涉及药剂师的干预措施,患者的体验和感知是当前研究的重点。我们的研究结果表明,这些方向将继续作为研究热点在未来。
Medication safety is a significant concern in healthcare. Research on medication safety for older adults has taken a broad approach, resulting in a range of proposals. At this juncture, it is necessary to identify the main contributors and establish the current developmental status of the principal research topics.
This study sets out to summarize the state-of-the-art in medication safety for older adults, identifying significant achievements, key topics, and emerging trends.
The Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) database was searched for relevant
documentation over the interval 1st January 2000 to 31st December 2021. Annual outputs and citations were identified from the WOS citation reports. CiteSpace and VOSviewer were adopted for bibliometric analysis and visualization that included the distribution of countries/regions, organizations, authors and journals, and an analysis of co-cited references and keywords.
A total of 1,638 documents were retrieved for bibliometric analysis, yielding 34.29 citations per document. Publications have increased over the past two decades, reaching 177 outputs in 2019. Our database encompasses 71 countries/regions, 2,347 organizations, and 7,040 authors. The United States ranks first in terms of scientific activity with 604 publications (36.87%). We have identified the University of Sydney as the most prolific organization (53 publications). J. T. Hanlon, J. H. Gurwitz, D. O\'Mahony, and G. Onder are the most influential researchers in terms of publications and citations. The Journal of the American Geriatrics Society ranks first with 89 (5.43%) papers. In terms of major research directions, three topics have been identified from co-cited reference and keyword analysis: (1) estimation of the prevalence and variables associated with polypharmacy and potentially inappropriate medication; (2) analysis of interventions involving pharmacists and the associated impact; (3) patient experience and perception associated with medication use or pharmaceutical care.
Research on medication safety for older adults has progressed significantly over the past two decades. The United States, in particular, has made important contributions to this field. Polypharmacy and potentially inappropriate medication use, interventions involving pharmacists, patient experience and perception represent the current focus of research. Our findings suggest that these directions will continue as research hotspots in the future.
