To the best of our knowledge, no bibliometric studies have characterised the paediatric anaesthesia research in Ireland. In this study, we aim to analyse the research output from two anaesthetic departments in Irish paediatric hospitals.
A Scopus database search was conducted to identify the publications from 2007 to 2018 of the departments of anaesthesia and intensive care medicine in the Children's University Hospital, Temple Street (CUH), and Our Lady's Children's Hospital, Crumlin (OLCHC).
The Irish publications in paediatric anaesthesia and intensive care included 108 publications. CUH and OLCHC published 37 (34.9%) and 73 (68.8%) documents, respectively, with 6 (5.6%) documents affiliated with both hospitals. The number of original research articles was 28 (75.7%) for CUH versus 46 (63%) for OLCHC. The number of published reviews was 5 (13.5%) for CUH versus 11 (15.1%) for OLCHC. Over the last 2 years (2016, 2017), the number of OLCHC publications was almost double (13 and 14 publications) that of CUH (4 and 6 publications). For CUH, only two publications were in specialised journals. For OLCHC, 18 publications were in specialised journals, in addition to four publications in high-ranked journals. The mean impact factor for CUH publications was 3.78 (standard deviation [SD], 7.19) versus 4.52 (SD, 10.56) for OLCHC. From OLCHC, 20 authors published with a median h-index of 2.00 (interquartile range, 0-4.25), versus 14 authors form CUH with a median h-index of 1.50 (1.00-4.50).
Anaesthetic publications from the two Irish paediatric hospitals are unexceptional and with limited cooperation between the two hospitals. Research plans should be implemented.
据我们所知，尚无文献计量学研究对爱尔兰的儿科麻醉研究进行描述。在本研究中，我们旨在分析爱尔兰儿科医院两个麻醉科的研究产出。
在Scopus数据库中进行检索，以确定2007年至2018年期间坦普尔街儿童医院（CUH）和克鲁姆林圣母儿童医院（OLCHC）麻醉与重症医学科的出版物。
爱尔兰关于儿科麻醉和重症监护的出版物有108篇。CUH和OLCHC分别发表了37篇（34.9%）和73篇（68.8%）文献，其中6篇（5.6%）文献为两家医院共同发表。CUH的原创研究文章数量为28篇（75.7%），而OLCHC为46篇（63%）。CUH发表的综述数量为5篇（13.5%），OLCHC为11篇（15.1%）。在过去两年（2016年、2017年），OLCHC的出版物数量几乎是CUH（4篇和6篇）的两倍（13篇和14篇）。对于CUH，仅有两篇出版物发表在专业期刊上。对于OLCHC，除了4篇发表在高排名期刊上的文献外，还有18篇发表在专业期刊上。CUH出版物的平均影响因子为3.78（标准差[SD]，7.19），而OLCHC为4.52（SD，10.56）。来自OLCHC的20位作者发表了文章，h指数中位数为2.00（四分位间距，0 - 4.25），而来自CUH的14位作者h指数中位数为1.50（1.00 - 4.50）。
爱尔兰两家儿科医院的麻醉学出版物表现平平，且两家医院之间的合作有限。应实施研究计划。
