Cleide Ane Barbosa da Cruz, Ana Eleonora Almeida Paixão
The use of a system of indicators can aid in the decision-making process as well as the assessment of patent potential. The objective of this study is to present a bibliometric analysis of scientific publications on the system of indicators related to patents. In the study a bibliometric analysis was carried out by means of a search in the bases Scielo and Scopus, being found 319 publications; after the time cut from 2000 to 2017 and the exclusion of duplicate articles, 233 publications were analyzed, representing 73% of the publications found. The results indicate that there has been an increase in publications related to patent-oriented indicator systems; however, Brazil has few articles on the subject, with publications predominating by the United States and China. It was verified that the use of bibliometrics allows to consult publications on different subjects, allowing to help researchers in their future researches.
