Evaluation of Hospital Preparedness for Disasters: A Bibliometric Analysis
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: This bibliometric analysis focuses on hospital preparedness for disasters research perspective & evaluation method especially in range of COVID pandemic era. The research presents a comprehensive analysis of research articles spanning 2019 to 2023, a total of articles from Scopus database 2.571, after filtered with inclusion criteria there are 145 articles selected.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: The methodology employed in this article is Bibliometric Analysis utilizing Scopus Analytics & VOSViewer, trends in publication output, geographical distribution, prominent authors, and subject areas were explored.
RESULTS: The dataset highlighted fluctuations in yearly publications between 18 and 40 articles per year, with peaks in 2021 with 40 articles in total. The United States led in contributions with 45 articles, followed by diverse global engagement from countries like Iran (20), Australia (9), and South Korea (9). The keyword ‘Nursing’ dominates the research field with 101 documents followed by ‘Medicine’ with 74 documents related to hospital disaster preparedness strategies and focusing on exploring human factors and community readiness for patient care during post-disaster conditions. VOSViewer analysis unveiled thematic clusters emphasizing COVID-19, hospital emergency service, healthcare personnel, and disaster nursing, elucidating interconnectedness within healthcare research. Notably, keywords like ‘disaster planning,’ ‘disaster preparedness,’ and ‘disaster management’ emerged as pivotal in assessing hospital readiness during disasters.
CONCLUSIONS: This study underscores the necessity of evaluating hospital preparedness for disasters, emphasizing multidisciplinary approaches and key thematic clusters, providing foundational insights for enhancing disaster management strategies in healthcare settings.
