Objective:To explore the current status and trends in emergency nursing teaching methods based on CiteSpace software in China from 2012 to 2023, and to provide reference for subsequent research.Methods:Literature on teaching methods in emergency nursing was electronically searched in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, and VIP from January 2012 to December 2023. CiteSpace and Excel software were used to perform bibliometric analysis on the publication year, journal source, first author affiliation, keywords and clustering content.Results:An initial search yielded 1 550 articles and 936 relevant articles were screened and published in 194 journals. From 2012 to 2023, the number of publications on teaching methods in emergency nursing in China was relatively flat, the first author affiliations were mainly general hospitals, and the research methods were mainly quantitative. Keyword clustering showed that six themes were extracted, including exploration of professional skills, reform and application of teaching methods, nursing teaching and evaluation, teaching modes, teaching tools, and training modes.Conclusions:The trend of publications in emergency nursing teaching methods in China in the past 10 years has been relatively flat, and the quality of the literature needs to be improved. Emergency nursing teaching needs to focus on reforming teaching modes and methods, and further exploring the use of tools such as mind maps and teaching manuals to improve the quality of teaching.
