Despite significant medical and technological advancements, cardiac arrest remains a critical public health concern due to its persistently high mortality and morbidity rates. Consequently, research on cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is of significant importance. This study presents a bibliometric analysis of the 100 most-cited articles in the field of CPR identified using the Scopus database without time restrictions. Analyses were conducted using VOSviewer and Bibliometrix software. Original research articles published in English were included. The study revealed contributions from 798 distinct authors across 18 journals, with citation counts ranging from 218 least-cited articles to 1194 most-cited articles. The most recent article was published in 2020, and the most frequently used keywords were "CPR" and "heart arrest." In addition, 20% of the analyzed articles were funded by military organizations. This analysis highlights the significant contributions of emergency medicine researchers and the notable development of CPR literature, particularly between the late 1990s and the early 2000s. While the most-cited studies originated from journals with high H-indices, the citation frequency of these articles showed a consistent decline over time. Furthermore, impactful articles in this field were predominantly published in general medical journals rather than in specialized emergency medicine journals. This study provides a foundational resource for researchers, especially early career academicians, seeking to engage in CPR-related research.
尽管医学和技术取得了重大进步，但由于心脏骤停的死亡率和发病率一直居高不下，它仍然是一个关键的公共卫生问题。因此，心肺复苏术（CPR）的研究具有重要意义。本研究对使用Scopus数据库不限时间检索出的CPR领域被引用次数最多的100篇文章进行了文献计量分析。分析使用了VOSviewer和Bibliometrix软件。纳入了以英文发表的原创研究文章。该研究揭示了来自18种期刊的798位不同作者的贡献，被引用次数从最少被引用218次的文章到最多被引用1194次的文章不等。最近的一篇文章发表于2020年，最常用的关键词是“CPR”和“心脏骤停”。此外，20%的分析文章由军事组织资助。这一分析突出了急诊医学研究人员的重大贡献以及CPR文献的显著发展，特别是在20世纪90年代末至21世纪初之间。虽然被引用次数最多的研究来自具有高H指数的期刊，但这些文章的被引用频率随时间呈持续下降趋势。此外，该领域有影响力的文章主要发表在普通医学期刊而非专门的急诊医学期刊上。本研究为寻求从事CPR相关研究的人员，尤其是早期职业学者，提供了一个基础资源。
