Electronic Health Records (EHR) are essential in modern healthcare, underpinning e-health initiatives. This study conducts a bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer software toanalyze data from the Scopus database. The examination of a vast array of 10,701 EHR-related documents from 1991 to 2023 aims to highlight the growth, current trends, and prospects for the future. This study observed a significant increase in EHR-related publications over the years, predominantly led by the United States, with substantial input from the United Kingdom, China, and India. In the Arab region, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, and Morocco are notable contributors, with institutions like King Saud University at the forefront of Arab academic research. Key terms such as EHR, machine learning, and blockchain dominate, indicating a focus on advanced technology in healthcare. The study also stresses the importance of addressing privacy, security, and patient safety in EHR research. This comprehensive examination is anticipated to make a significant impact on the field, providing a solid understanding of the role of EHR in healthcare and influencing future research and policymaking in this area.
