| ABSTRACT |
Objective:
This study examined the trends in emergency medicine research in Korea over the past three decades and to how the field has evolved over time.
Methods:
We analyzed 2,720 articles published in the Journal of the Korean Society of Emergency Medicine from 1990 to 2023 using text-mining techniques.
Results:
Over the past 34 years, major research topics in Korean emergency medicine have included cardiopulmonary resuscitation, emergency medical service, emergency department, mortality, prognosis, poisoning, cardiac arrest, triage, ultrasonography, and education. The main research topics have evolved over the decades. In the 1990s, studies focused on cardiopulmonary resuscitation, injury severity score, Glasgow Coma Scale, mortality, and trauma. In the 2000s, the focus shifted to cardiopulmonary resuscitation, cardiac arrest, emergency medical service, emergency department, and poisoning. In the 2010s, research focused on cardiopulmonary resuscitation, emergency medical service, prognosis, mortality, and cardiac arrest. Since 2020, studies have predominantly addressed emergency departments, mortality, coronavirus disease 2019, emergency medical services, and prognosis.
Conclusion:
These findings provide a reference for identifying future research direction for emergency medicine researchers in Korea and may contribute to diversifying, balancing, and promoting emergency medicine research nationwide. |
