Abstract:
【Objective:】 To compare and analyze the trends and hotspots in the field of medical ethics at home and abroad, and explore their teaching enlightenment for medical ethics in China. 【Methods:】 The relevant papers indexed in CNKI and Web of Science database from December 31, 2011 to December 31, 2022 were retrieved with "medical ethics" as the key word. The bibliometric method was used to compare and analyze the research trends, keyword co-occurrence, and changes of research hotspots of medical ethics at home and abroad. 【Results:】 A total of 1,187 Chinese and English papers were included. Medical ethics education and bioethics were the common research topics both domestically and internationally. The research topics in China focused on ethical teaching and the ethical principles in clinical practice, and the research hotspots in the past two years were curriculum ideological and political education, teaching practice, etc. Foreign research focused on ethical issues in clinical practice, and in the past two years, the hotspots were clinical trial ethics, informed consent, and so on. 【Conclusion:】 Medical ethics research at home and abroad has different emphasis, with domestic research being theoretical oriented and foreign research being practical oriented. By deepening the content of courses, improving the sustainable education system, and strengthening interdisciplinary cooperation, the development of ethical education in China can be promoted. This paper can provide reference for improving the education system of medical ethics in China and pointing out the direction of further research on medical ethics.
