Resumen

Introducción: La asignación de recursos de atención médica durante eventos epidémicos y pandémicos es un desafío complejo que requiere una cuidadosa toma de decisiones. El racionamiento en la atención médica plantea preocupaciones éticas, especialmente para grupos vulnerables. Nuestro objetivo fue analizar el panorama de investigación en la asignación de recursos de atención médica durante epidemias y pandemias. Material y métodos: Realizamos un análisis bibliométrico de artículos de revistas indexados en las bases de datos Web of Science y Scopus con resúmenes en inglés. Se desarrolló una estrategia de búsqueda sistemática utilizando palabras clave relevantes. Los datos fueron procesados y analizados para obtener descripciones, análisis de citas, análisis de co-citas y análisis de redes sociales. Resultados: Un análisis que incluyó 124 documentos encontró un aumento significativo en la producción de investigación en este campo en los últimos años, con la mayoría de los artículos publicados entre 2019 y 2022. Estados Unidos emergió como el país líder en términos de producción de investigación. Se revelaron temas y temas prominentes como COVID-19, ética y triaje. Los hallazgos resaltan la importancia de las consideraciones éticas y el impacto de la pandemia de COVID-19 en el impulso de la investigación en la asignación de recursos de atención médica. Conclusión: El estudio destaca la prominencia de COVID-19 como fuerza impulsora de la investigación y la importancia de las revistas relacionadas con la ética como fuentes de conocimiento.
