2015年至2025年虚拟现实技术在围术期患者负性情绪管理及术后康复中应用的文献计量分析OA

Objective To analyze the research status,hotspots and development trends in the application of virtual reality(VR)tech-nology in managing negative emotions and postoperative rehabilitation of perioperative patients over the past de-cade. Methods Literatures related to the application of VR technology in managing negative emotions and postoperative reha-bilitation of perioperative patients were retrieved from Web of Science Core Collection database and CNKI,cov-ering the period from January,2015 to August,2025,and CiteSpace 6.3.R1 was used for bibliometric analysis. Results A total of 267 English literatures and 130 Chinese literatures were included,with the annual number of publica-tions showing an upward trend.The United States was the country with the largest number of publications in Eng-lish literatures,and Erasmus University Rotterdam was the institution with the largest number of publications.High-frequency keywords included virtual reality,pain,surgery,anxiety and distraction.Research hotspots main-ly focused on functional exercise,negative emotions,pain management and multimodal intervention strategies.English researches were deepening towards virtual reality exposure therapy,mechanism exploration and personal-ized schemes,while Chinese researches focused more on the verification of rehabilitation effects. Conclusion Researches on the application of VR technology in the management of perioperative patients are rapidly de-veloping,with research hotspots shifting from single technology application to multimodal and personalized inte-grated intervention.Future research should focus on exploring its intervention mechanisms,personalized schemes and the breadth of cross-departmental applications.
