Analysis of global publications on tracheostomy between 1980 and 2021, including the impact of COVID-19: a bibliometric overview
Abstract
Aim: The usage of tracheostomy and related studies have increased in recent years with the COVID-19 pandemic, however, there is not enough bibliometric study in the literature. This study aims to summarize scientific articles on tracheostomy. Material and Method: Published articles about tracheostomy between 1980 and 2021 were analyzed using bibliometric and statistical methods. Articles were retrieved from the Web of Science database. Keyword network visualization maps were used to identify trending topics and collaborations. The Exponential Triple Smoothing estimator was used to forecast the possible number of future publications. Spearman’s test was used for correlation studies. Results: A total of 6274 publications were found. 3573 were articles. The top three countries were USA (n=1337), UK (n=361) and Germany (n=298). The top three institutions were Harvard University (n=67), University Michigan (n=50), University of Pennsylvania (n=40). The top three journals with the highest number of publications were Laryngoscope (n=189), International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology (n=128), Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery (n=121). According to the average number of citations per article, the top three most influential journals were Chest (70.2), Critical Care Medicine (66.5), and Journal of Trauma-Injury Infection and Critical Care (48.5). Conclusion: This comprehensive bibliometric study summarized articles on tracheostomy. There is an increasing trend in the number of articles following the COVID-19 pandemic. This study showed that the need for tracheostomy may increase in epidemics which cause respiratory failure. This article can be a useful resource for clinicians and scientists.
