Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the current situation and hotspot analysis of international research related to workplace violence in acute care, to provide a reference basis for nursing staff to carry out clinical work and related research. METHODS: Based on the core journal literature related to workplace violence suffered by nurses in (Web of Science Core Collection, WOSCC)), the search time frame was from 1st January 2003 to 1st January 2024, and with the help of CiteSpace 6.2.R.4 software, bibliometric and cluster analysis. RESULTS: A total of 1991 articles were included in the literature, the number of documents contained in Web of Science showed a trend of growth year by year, and the cooperation between authors formed a different perspective of the research; the co-cited literature in this field formed a knowledge base; the keyword clustering analysis suggests that the connection between hotspots is more dispersed, more research orientated and less comprehensive; recent research hotspots have evolved in line with advances in the field and related disciplines. CONCLUSION: There are more theoretical and cross-sectional studies in the field of workplace violence among nurses, and intervention and longitudinal studies still need to be strengthened. Each country should also keep up with international developments, study the influencing factors of related problems according to its situation, and propose suitable interventions, which will also provide a reference for further extensive and in-depth research on workplace violence.
