Abstract (es)
Contexto: El sector de la salud se ha enfrentado continuamente a los desafíos de disminuir costos y mejorar la calidad asistencial. Las investigaciones de la cadena de suministro en el sector salud han alcanzado un mayor interés en la comunidad científica. Se han publicado varios artículos relacionados con el tema, los cuales se centran en aspectos como el desempeño de la cadena, enfoques de gestión, administración de inventarios, evaluación y selección de proveedores, y algunos otros con áreas de enfoque más amplias.
Método: Este artículo presenta una revisión de literatura y un análisis bibliométrico. El análisis comienza identificando los estudios publicados en los últimos diez años. Luego, se emplean herramientas bibliométricas que permiten identificar temas claves de investigación, sus interrelaciones y patrones de colaboración.
Resultados: Esta investigación ayuda a ilustrar gráficamente las publicaciones sobre gestión de la cadena de suministro hospitalaria (HSCM), presentar la evolución a lo largo del tiempo e identificar áreas de interés de investigación actual y posibles líneas de investigación para el futuro. Los resultados identifican el estado de desarrollo y las principales tendencias en términos de impacto, principales revistas, artículos, temas, autores y países.
Conclusiones: Las futuras investigaciones pueden concentrarse en estudios más innovadores desde múltiples dimensiones: cadena de suministro, gestión y organización, servicios de salud administración de operaciones, sostenibilidad, desempeño, contexto y tendencias.
Abstract (en)
Context: The healthcare sector has continuously faced the challenges of reducing costs and improving quality of care. Research on the supply chain in the health sector has aroused a higher level of interest in the scientific community. Several articles have been published on the subject, focusing on aspects such as chain performance, management approaches, inventory management, supplier evaluation and selection, and some others with broader areas of focus.
Method: This article presents a literature review and a bibliometric analysis. The analysis begins by identifying studies published in the last ten years. Then, bibliometric tools are used to identify key research topics, their interrelationships, and patterns of collaboration.
Results: This research helps to graphically illustrate publications on hospital supply chain management, present their evolution over time, and identify areas of current research interest and possible lines of research for the future. The results identify the state of development and the main trends in terms of impact, main journals, articles, topics, authors, and countries.
Conclusions: Future research can focus on more innovative studies from multiple dimensions: supply chain, management and organization, health services, operations management, sustainability, performance, context, and trends.
