Abstract

In the last 20 years, research on the topic of psycho-cardiology has gradually entered the public eye, with more innovations and applications of evidence-based medical research, biological mechanism research, and guideline consensus in the field of psycho-cardiology. This study uses a bibliometric approach to visualize and analyze the literature within the field of psycho-cardiology over the last 20 years to visualize the development process, research hotspots, and cutting-edge trends in clinical practice, mechanisms, and management strategies related to psycho-cardiology. Quantitative description and evaluation of 409 articles published in the field from 2004-2022 were conducted using CiteSpace and VOSviewer, to provide a theoretical reference for the development of psycho-cardiology.
