Outreach programs are considered a key strategy for providing services to underserved populations and play a central role in delivering health-care services. To address this challenge, knowledge relevant to global health outreach programs has recently been expanded. The aims of this study were to analyze the knowledge structure and understand the trends in aspects over time and across regions using text network analysis with NetMiner 4.0. Data analysis by frequency, time and region showed that the central keywords such as patient, care, service and community were found to be highly related to the area, target population, purpose and type of services within the knowledge structure of outreach. As a result of performing topic modeling, knowledge structure in this area consisted of five topics: patient-centered care, HIV care continuum, services related to a specific disease, community-based health-care services and research and education on health programs. Our results newly identified that patient-centered care, specific disease and population have been growing more crucial for all times and countries by the examination of major trends in health-care related outreach research. These findings help health professionals, researchers and policymakers in nursing and public health fields in understanding and developing health-care-related outreach practices and suggest future research direction.
外展项目被认为是向服务不足人群提供服务的关键策略，在外展服务中发挥着核心作用。为了解决这一挑战，与全球健康外展项目相关的知识最近得到了扩展。本研究的目的是使用 NetMiner 4.0 进行文本网络分析，分析知识结构，了解随时间和跨地区的趋势。通过频率、时间和地区的数据分析表明，患者、护理、服务和社区等核心关键词与知识结构中的领域、目标人群、服务目的和类型密切相关。通过主题建模，该领域的知识结构包括五个主题：以患者为中心的护理、艾滋病毒护理连续体、与特定疾病相关的服务、基于社区的医疗保健服务以及健康项目的研究和教育。我们的研究结果通过对与医疗保健相关的外展研究的主要趋势进行分析，发现以患者为中心的护理、特定疾病和特定人群对于所有国家和时代都变得更加重要，这为护理和公共卫生领域的医疗保健专业人员、研究人员和政策制定者提供了帮助，使他们能够理解和发展医疗保健相关的外展实践，并为未来的研究指明了方向。
