Abstract:
Objective To quantify the basic information of publications on postanesthesia care unit(PACU)and identify the most influential research,trends,and hotspots in the field of PACU.Methods The Web of Science Core Collection database was searched for research papers on PACU from 2003 to 2023.Basic metrology information,such as publication year,country,author,source title,academic organizations,subjects,and hot spots,were collected and analyzed.Results A total of 1541 articles on PACU from 2003 to 2023 were involved in the results analysis.The highest number of articles(n=814)were published in the United States,following by China(n=146)and Canada(n=97).Dexter Franklin,the most productive author,published 30 papers on PACU research.Harvard University was the most influential academic institution,publishing 52 papers with a total of 1338 citations,averaging 25.73 citations per article,and an H-index of 20.The journal Anesthesia and Analgesia has the largest papers with 232 publications.The hotspots in the field of PACU include"postoperative pain","general anesthesia","recovery","risk factors"and"postoperative nausea".Results showed that"enhanced postoperative recovery"and"pain management"are the burst keywords in the past two decades.Conclusion Based on the bibliometric research method,this study provides a comprehensive analysis and summary of the development of the PACU research field.In the future,"enhanced postoperative recovery"and"pain management"may be hot research trends in this field.
