Abstract

Objective To analyze the research hotspots and development trend of intensive nursing care decision-making at home and abroad，in order to provide references for subsequent research. Methods We searched the CNKI and Web of Science Core database from January 1，2013 to May 6，2024，and used Excel，VOS viewer and Citespace to conduct the visualization analysis. Results A total of 265 articles were included in the search，153 articles from WOS while 112 articles from CNKI. The world has experienced the impact of public health emergencies，and the number of publications has reached its first peak in the past decade，entering the initial stage of research. Keyword clustering revealed that moral dilemmas in critical care decision-making constitute a globally shared research focus，international studies predominantly focused on critically ill end-of-life patients’ moral dilemmas，while China’s research priorities centered on evidence-based scientific methods to support nursing decision-making. Conclusion Ethical dilemmas in critical care decision-making，evidence-based support，and competency enhancement are current research hotspots. It is recommended to advance the development and innovation of clinical decision-making in critical care through three key strategies，including translating practical experience into practice，fostering moral resilience，and integrating artificial intelligence innovation.
