Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the research progress and challenges in electronic health records(EHR) in China by means of literature retrieval of EHR research in China.Methods:" Electronic health record" " Electronic health archive" and " Electronic medical record" were used as search terms, and subject retrieving method was used to retrieve literatures published before December 31 2019 on China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI) database. Such software as SATI, Netdraw, VOSviewer, UCINET and CiteSpace etc. were used for bibliometric analysis and knowledge graphing. These practices could analyze and visualize in an overall perspective the power distsribution, hot spots and evolution trends of EHR study in China.Results:2 146 papers on EHR research were retrieved. The study found that relatively stable groups of core authors on EHR had taken shape in China, and there were not representative authority organizations as of now, while a healthy research ecology was emerging gradually; the current studies were centering on seven hot spots and presented a clear technology-based tendency.Conclusions:Such areas as data security, nation-wide system integration, application performance upgrading mechanism and EHR data industrialization constitute both development opportunities and major challenges as well.
