Furthermore, this analysis highlights noteworthy keywords such as “sarcopenia,” “physical activity,” and “virtual reality,” offering essential insights into core themes within geriatric rehabilitation. Consequently, this study presents a valuable resource for scholars and researchers alike. It serves as a foundational tool for identifying prevalent research trends, addressing existing gaps, and embarking on new explorations in the dynamic realm of geriatric rehabilitation. The findings provide a holistic understanding of the knowledge landscape, paving the way for informed decision-making, innovative research endeavors, and the enhancement of geriatric rehabilitation practices. © 2024, Universitas Negeri Semarang.
