The share of Canadian scientific publications in critical care nursing among the world's top 10% cited is forecasted to decline from 14.46% in 2024 to 12.25% by 2028. This downward trend indicates a decrease of about 1.56% on average annually. The consistent reduction highlights a potential lag in maintaining global citation impact in this field over the years.
Future trends to watch for include the integration of innovative methodologies in research, emphasis on interdisciplinary collaborations, and investing in high-impact research areas. These strategies may help counteract the declining trend in Canada's influence in the critical care nursing domain.
