Objective  To explore the research hotspots and latest progress of lung transplantation nursing at home and abroad, and to provide reference ideas and directions for the future related research. Methods  Through the collection of CNKI and Web of Science core database, the related literature of lung transplantation nursing from inception to December 2023 was retrieved and CiteSpace software was used to focus on keyword co-occurrence, clustering and emergence. Results  A total of 352 Chinese literature and 126 English literature were included in this study, and the number of papers published at home and abroad showed an overall upward trend. There were 34 core authors of Chinese literature and 83 core authors of English literature. The core authors led the team to promote research and promote cooperation at home and abroad. At present, the cooperation among research teams needed to be strengthened. Chinese literature keywords included nursing, lung transplantation, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, lung rehabilitation, lung transplantation surgery, complications. English literature keywords included lung transplanation, quality of life, international society, disease, bone marrow transplantation. There were 15 clusters and 25 emergent keywords in the CNKI database, and 12 clusters and 25 emergent keywords in the Web of Science core database. Conclusion The study of lung transplantation nursing at home and abroad has been paid more and more attention, and the research is getting more and more sophisticated. The future study can realize the holistic care of patients during perioperative period on the basis of clinical diagnosis and nursing technology, and improve the survival of patients after operation.
