Abstract:

Objective To analyze the research hotspots and development trends of postpartum rehabilitation at home and abroad in the past ten years.
Methods CiteSpace 6.2.R2 was used to analyze the co-occurrence, cluster, and bursting of keywords of the relevant literature in the field of postpartum rehabilitation in CNKI and Web of Science (WOS) in the past ten years.
Results Totally, 2 686 Chinese papaers were included in CNKI and 1 247 English papers were included in WOS. Both databases showed an increasing trend in the number of publications related to the field of postpartum rehabilitation, but the overall number of publications in CNKI grew faster and the total number of publications was more than that in WOS. For CNKI, there were 455 nodes, 1 102 links, with a density of 0.010 7; nine clusters were obtained; the bursting keywords showed that the diseases of concern shifted from breast distension and pain to pelvic floor diseases, and the hot spots of treatment methods shifted from Chinese medicine to electrical stimulation, biofeedback, and then pelvic floor training. For WOS, there were 463 nodes, 1 633 connected lines, with a density of 0.015 3; 14 clusters were obtained; the bursting keywords showed that the disease hotspots of concern shifted from anal prolapse and postpartum hemorrhage to organ prolapse, the hotspots of treatment methods shifted from analgesia to exercise, and the focus of research methods shifted from trial to qualitative research and meta-analysis.
Conclusion Domestic postpartum rehabilitation started later than foreign countries. Although certain research results have been achieved, there is still a certain gap compared with the development of foreign postpartum rehabilitation.
