Lung ultrasound (LUS) is increasingly utilized in the field of anesthesiology due to its focused, quick application and the advantage of not exposing patients to ionizing radiation. This study aims to analyze the status and trends in this area from a macroscopic perspective.
A bibliometric analysis was conducted using the Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection. The analysis and visualization were performed using WoS, Excel, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace. Parameters such as publications, countries, institutions, journals, and keywords were analyzed.
A total of 133 articles published over the last 10 years were analyzed to clarify the current status and future trends on the use of LUS in anesthesiology. The number of publications increased markedly from May 1, 2014, to April 30, 2024. China is the highest productive country, while the USA had the highest number of citations. In the institution, Seoul National University in South Korea published the most articles and had the highest number of citations. Kim Jin-Tae emerged as the most prolific and influential author. BMC Anesthesiology and the Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia were identified as the most popular journals in the field. Keywords such as "atelectasis", "mechanical ventilation", and "pulmonary complications" were closely related to the use of LUS in anesthesiology.
This study provides a comprehensive analysis of research on the use of LUS in anesthesiology, highlighting the growing interest in LUS and its relevance to pulmonary complications.
由于肺部超声（LUS）具有针对性强、应用快速且无需让患者暴露于电离辐射的优势，其在麻醉学领域的应用日益广泛。本研究旨在从宏观角度分析该领域的现状和趋势。
使用科学网（WoS）核心合集进行文献计量分析。分析和可视化操作使用WoS、Excel、VOSviewer和CiteSpace完成。对出版物、国家、机构、期刊和关键词等参数进行了分析。
对过去10年发表的133篇文章进行分析，以阐明LUS在麻醉学中应用的现状和未来趋势。从2014年5月1日至2024年4月30日，出版物数量显著增加。中国是发文量最高的国家，而美国的被引次数最多。在机构方面，韩国首尔国立大学发表的文章最多且被引次数最高。Kim Jin-Tae是发文量最多且最具影响力的作者。《BMC麻醉学》和《心胸血管麻醉杂志》被确定为该领域最受欢迎的期刊。“肺不张”“机械通气”和“肺部并发症”等关键词与LUS在麻醉学中的应用密切相关。
本研究对LUS在麻醉学中应用的研究进行了全面分析，突出了对LUS的兴趣日益增长及其与肺部并发症的相关性。
