| Summary: | Carers, frequently family members, are crucial to the recovery process after a stroke, which is a significant global health problem. Given that carers' health directly affects the degree of care provided to stroke survivors, understanding the challenges they confront is essential as the prevalence of stroke rises. It is believed that this research would enhance carer support, ultimately assisting stroke survivors.
This bibliometric study includes 48 articles on carer stress in stroke rehabilitation published between 2000 and 2022. The primary findings include a steady growth rate of 6.5% per year, underutilised current data with an average document age of 9.06 years and few average citations, significant author collaboration with few international partnerships, and a range of document formats. The dataset is split into four thematic groups: the general "Humans" theme, the focused "Family" theme, the specialised "Patient Discharge" niche, and the expanding "Inpatients" issue. These recommendations direct students towards specific areas of study. Visualisations that emphasise growth trends, document categories, important sources, and key affiliations provide insightful insights for enhancing carer aid and stroke recovery.
The findings of this bibliometric analysis of carer stress in stroke rehabilitation demonstrate a steady rise, recent but underutilised data, significant collaboration, a range of document types, and distinct theme orientations. Thematic grouping supports focused investigations. Finding essential sources and significant affiliations facilitates making informed decisions. This study advances our knowledge of carer stress and sets the road for more beneficial treatments for both carers and stroke victims.
