Summary
This bibliometric analysis reveals a growing body of research on surgical thirst. The number of publications on this patient concern is increasing and is projected to rise further.
Area of Science:
- Medical Research
- Bibliometrics
- Anesthesiology
Background:
- Thirst is a significant patient issue during surgical interventions.
- Existing literature lacks comprehensive bibliometric analysis on surgical thirst.
- Understanding research trends is crucial for clinical practice guidance.
Purpose of the Study:
- To systematically evaluate scientific publications on thirst during the surgical period.
- To identify research gaps and emerging trends in surgical thirst.
- To provide insights for future clinical practice and research.
Main Methods:
- Descriptive and bibliometric analysis of 256 articles.
- Data sourced from the SCOPUS database (1969-2024).
- Analysis using Excel, VOSviewer, and R software (Bibliometrix Package).
Main Results:
- 256 articles published across 181 sources by 1,194 authors.
- China leads in publications (111 articles), followed by the USA (67) and Brazil (52).
- Key journals include 'Journal of Perianesthesia Nursing', 'British Journal of Anesthesia', and 'Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica.'
Conclusions:
- A clear upward trend in research on surgical thirst is observed.
- Future research on this critical patient issue is expected to increase.
- Growing interest indicates rising demand for evidence-based practices in managing surgical thirst.

01:25Regulation of Water Intake
448
Osmolality refers to the number of solute particles per kilogram of solvent in a solution. Plasma osmolality specifically indicates the total number of solute particles per kilogram of water in blood plasma. This value reflects the body's hydration status and is tightly regulated through mechanisms controlling water intake and output. While water consumption is a conscious decision, the body has intrinsic regulatory systems to maintain fluid balance. Dehydration, a state of water deficit...

Diagnosing and managing appendicitis requires a structured and comprehensive approach that spans from initial assessment to postoperative care. Here is an overview of the process:
Diagnosing Appendicitis
It requires a multifaceted approach, starting with a detailed physical examination to pinpoint the location and nature of the pain and identify any associated symptoms. Laboratory tests play a crucial role. A complete Blood Count (CBC) typically reveals leukocytosis (an increased number of...

Thoracentesis(Thoracocentesis), commonly known as pleural tap, is a medical procedure where a 22 gauge needle is inserted into the pleural space, the area between the lung and chest wall. This procedure is commonly performed to diagnose or treat various respiratory disorders.
Description
Excess pleural fluid or air may accumulate in some respiratory disorders in the thoracic cavity. To treat pleural effusion, a physician conducts thoracentesis by carefully piercing the chest wall and entering...
