Abstract： Objective To explore the research hotspots and frontier areas of exercise intervention for fall prevention over the past decade,aiming to provide a reference for improving patient safety.Methods Articles regarding the exercise for fall prevention published in the Web of Science(WOS)from January 2012 to December 2021 were retrieved.Visualized analysis of the included articles was conducted using CiteSpace software.Results A total of 2 224 articles were included.The effect of exercise on fall prevention continues to gain attention.The number of related publications has risen over the past decade.The United States led in the number of related publications,followed by Australia and the United Kingdom.However,research exchanges between different countries and the number of academic communities remained limited.In this area,research methods have evolved over time,initially focusing on randomized controlled trials and later incorporating evidence-based practical research.The scope of research subjects has broadened over time,from ordinary elderly populations to special populations(menopausal women,osteoporosis patients,Parkinson disease patients,dementia patients,etc.).The research contents showed a trend of interdisciplinary integration,highlighted the concept of people-oriented care and placed greater emphasis on the long-term prognosis of patients who had experienced falls.Conclusion Currently,research on exercise intervention for fall prevention is still in its exploratory phase.In future research,the quality of life of patients who experienced falls may be improved by strengthening cooperation among different disciplines and institutions and proactively implementing transitional care.
