      ab: Aim: This research aims to identify and visualize articles on the elderly and virtual reality, to highlight trends, and to provide future researchers with a literature-based overview of the subject. Methods: The data obtained in our study was collected from the Web of Science Core Collection database in January 2024, and the analyzes were performed using the VOSviewer (1.6.15) program. Analyzes were made according to publication numbers, years, authors, country, journal, institution and keywords. Results: In our study, bibliometric analysis was performed on 420 articles published between 1997-2024. It was determined that the author who published the most on the subject was Riva G (n: 30). In the searches made with relevant keywords, it was seen that the institution with the most publications was Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore (n:27), and the most productive country was Italy (n:64). The journal with the most publications on the subject is Annual Review of CyberTherapy and Telemedicine (n:13). In the map where the relationship between at least three keywords is visualized, the three most frequently used keywords are virtual reality (n: 212), elderly (n: 88), virtual reality (n: 80). Conclusion: As a result of our research, it has been observed that the number of studies on this subject has increased in recent years, Italy is the most productive country and our country cooperates with the USA. The results obtained from this study are expected to help evaluate the current status of the studies, provide a broad perspective to researchers, guide future nursing studies and contribute to the relevant literature.
