Rehabilitation Engineering is the use of engineering principles applied to rehabilitation, disability, and independent living. Google Scholar is a searchable resource that allows people from around the world to create profiles of their interests and collaborations, and it provides a means to search the broad scientific and technical literature. Google Scholar was used to identify the 150 most cited people who listed Rehabilitation Engineering in their profile. Research impact, characteristics, and areas of research of the most cited rehabilitation engineers were examined. Furthermore, gender and geographical differences in research metrics of the highest citied rehabilitation engineers were investigated. Consumer priorities in rehabilitation engineering were identified using a voice of consumer (VoC) survey and recent literature based on VoC studies. Gaps between research publication and activities and consumer priorities were identified to recommend seven areas of research with high demand and opportunity for growth and innovation.

Implications.

Rehabilitation Engineering appears to be a male-dominated profession similar to other engineering disciplines.

There are disparities in the number of rehabilitation engineers and measures of scientific productivity between different regions of the world.

Despite people identifying as rehabilitation engineers in every region, the most cited were identified as working in the World Health Organization Region of Americas and the European Region.

There appears to be benefits for rehabilitation engineers who have multiple collaborations and who work in doctoral degree-granting institutions.

Seven areas of research identified as consumer priorities were not captured by the most cited rehabilitation engineers these include: 1) Transportation and automobile driving 2) Recreation/Leisure 3) Autonomous vehicles/wheelchairs 4) Smart home/IoT 5) Computer/mobile applications and telecommunications 6) Patient transfer devices 7) Power sources. These priorities are opportunities for growth and innovation.

小型回顾:康复工程:研究重点和趋势

康复工程是将工程原理应用于康复、残疾和独立生活。Google Scholar 是一种可搜索的资源,允许来自世界各地的人们创建他们的兴趣和合作的档案,它提供了一种搜索广泛的科学和技术文献的方法。Google Scholar 用于确定在个人资料中列出了康复工程的 150 位被引用次数最多的人。对引用最多的康复工程师的研究影响、特征和研究领域进行了研究。此外,调查了最高城市康复工程师研究指标的性别和地域差异。使用消费者之声 (VoC) 调查和基于 VoC 研究的最新文献确定了康复工程中的消费者优先事项。确定了研究出版物和活动与消费者优先事项之间的差距,以推荐七个具有高需求和增长和创新机会的研究领域。

影响。

康复工程似乎是一个男性主导的职业,类似于其他工程学科。

世界不同地区之间康复工程师的数量和科学生产力的衡量标准存在差异。

尽管人们在每个地区都认定为康复工程师,但被引用最多的是在世界卫生组织美洲区域和欧洲区域工作。

拥有多项合作并在博士学位授予机构工作的康复工程师似乎有好处。

被引用最多的康复工程师没有抓住七个被确定为消费者优先考虑的研究领域,其中包括:1) 交通和汽车驾驶 2) 娱乐/休闲 3) 自动驾驶汽车/轮椅 4) 智能家居/物联网 5) 计算机/移动应用和电信 6) 病人转移设备 7) 电源。这些优先事项是增长和创新的机会。
