ObjectiveTo identify and clarify the key issues faced by tertiary hospitals in responding to public health emergencies.MethodsA literature review index system was constructed, and key issues were identified using hierarchical analysis.ResultsAfter a systematic literature review, 20 types of problems faced by tertiary hospitals in responding to public health emergencies were identified. Three key issues were ultimately identified by prioritizing the issues that needed to be addressed.ConclusionThe key issues of tertiary hospitals in responding to public health emergencies are concentrated in the areas of emergency response capabilities and competencies of medical staff, the number of emergency response personnel, and the standardization and specificity of training and drills. Tertiary hospitals should focus on these issues in developing public health emergency response systems to improve the effectiveness of their emergency response.
