Nutricion del Anciano, Terapia Nutricional, Nutrición Enteral, BibliometríaResumen
Objetivo: Realizar un análisis bibliométrico de la producción científica sobre nutrición enteral en ancianos, destacando tendencias temáticas y lagunas de investigación.
Metodología: Se utilizó la base Web of Science, con publicaciones entre 1988 y 2024. Se analizaron indicadores cuantitativos, número de publicaciones, redes de coautoría y palabras clave.
Resultados: Se recuperaron 506 documentos, distribuidos en 237 revistas y con 2.291 autores. Se observó concentración en las áreas de Nutrición y Dietética (43,48%) y Geriatría (11,86%). Hubo un crecimiento expresivo después de 2010, con posterior estabilización. La Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos, el cáncer y la desnutrición emergieron como temas centrales. Se observaron lagunas en intervenciones dirigidas a ancianos frágiles y cuidados paliativos.
Consideraciones Finales: La producción científica sobre nutrición enteral en ancianos ha crecido de manera consistente, con énfasis en Nutrición y Geriatría, pero aún carece de estudios dirigidos a intervenciones personalizadas y cuidados paliativos.
