Objectives To analyze and track the hotspots and frontiers of the field of frailty by analyzing the related research published by SCI-journals in recent decade.Methods Data of publications from 2010 to 2019 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database. CiteSpace was used to analyze the hotspots and frontiers of frailty research from high-impact countries/regions, institutions, authors, high-frequency keywords and burst terms.Results A total of 12 768 publications were identified. The United States was the leading country for publications. Research hotspots focused on adverse health outcomes associated with frailty, interventions, and frailty in elderly patients and females. Besides, frailty assessment and screening, cohort study, meta-analysis and cognitive impairment were the frontier fields.Conclusions Adverse health outcomes associated with frailty, interventions, and frailty in elderly patients and females are the hotspots and frontiers of frailty research.
