Abstract: Objective: To analyze the relevant research hotspots of perioperative virtual reality (VR) technology in obstetrics and gynecology，and understand the current research status and development trends in this field. Methods: The relevant literature on the application of VR technology in the perioperative period of obstetrics and gynecology was searched in the core database of Web of Science. The bibliometric analysis method (Bicomb 2.04) was used to analyze the keywords, and the biclustering software (gCLUTO 1.0) was used to cluster the high-frequency keywords, so as to obtain the current research hotspots in the field of VR technology during the perioperative period in obstetrics and gynecology. Results: A total of 225 studies on VR technology in the perioperative period in obstetrics and gynecology were included. 23 high-frequency keywords with a frequency of ≥10 were identified, forming four clusters, which were related to enhancing surgical skills of residents and medical students through VR technology, VR technology for alleviating preoperative anxiety and labor pain, VR technology in gynecological surgeries, and VR technology in gynecological cancer and perioperative examinations. Conclusion: At present, the global perioperative research heat of VR technology in obstetrics and gynecology continues to increase, mainly focusing on medical education, surgical skills training, preoperative anxiety, intraoperative applications, gynecological cancer and perioperative examinations. Among these, the most extensive research has been conducted in the field of education.
