“…There is evidence that active preoperative patient education improves postoperative outcomes in spinal surgery regarding emergency room use, expenditure, and psychological measures [ 17 , 18 ]. Given that social media websites have been established as poor sources of information, the high proportion of patients utilizing these websites is concerning and offers room for advancement [ 15 , 19 , 20 ]. Our study revealed that most information provided originates from nonacademic, nongovernment sources (72.2%), with 21.5% from social media websites.…”

“…Second, we searched YouTube for the top 50 videos for “neck pain” by relevant. Actually, a default “relevance” sorting option was adopted by many studies when evaluating the reliability and quality of YouTube videos providing medical information to patients ( 22 , 29 , 32 , 57 – 60 ). The default ranking option—“Relevance”—was the most commonly used option in the YouTube ranking algorithm (relevance, upload date, number of views, rating) ( 61 , 62 ).…”

BackgroundMore than 70 percent of the world's population is tortured with neck pain more than once in their vast life, of which 50–85% recur within 1–5 years of the initial episode. With medical resources affected by the epidemic, more and more people seek health-related knowledge via YouTube. This article aims to assess the quality and reliability of the medical information shared on YouTube regarding neck pain.MethodsWe searched on YouTube using the keyword “neck pain” to include the top 50 videos by relevance, then divided them into five and seven categories based on their content and source. Each video was quantitatively assessed using the Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA), DISCERN, Global Quality Score (GQS), Neck Pain-Specific Score (NPSS), and video power index (VPI). Spearman correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between JAMA, GQS, DISCERN, NPSS and VPI. A multiple linear regression analysis was applied to identify video features affecting JAMA, GQS, DISCERN, and NPSS.ResultsThe videos had a mean JAMA score of 2.56 (SD = 0.43), DISCERN of 2.55 (SD = 0.44), GQS of 2.86 (SD = 0.72), and NPSS of 2.90 (SD = 2.23). Classification by video upload source, non-physician videos had the greatest share at 38%, and sorted by video content, exercise training comprised 40% of the videos. Significant differences between the uploading sources were observed for VPI (P = 0.012), JAMA (P < 0.001), DISCERN (P < 0.001), GQS (P = 0.001), and NPSS (P = 0.007). Spearman correlation analysis showed that JAMA, DISCERN, GQS, and NPSS significantly correlated with each other (JAMA vs. DISCERN, p < 0.001, JAMA vs. GQS, p < 0.001, JAMA vs. NPSS, p < 0.001, DISCERN vs. GQS, p < 0.001, DISCERN vs. NPSS, p < 0.001, GQS vs. NPSS, p < 0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis suggested that a higher JAMA score, DISCERN, or GQS score were closely related to a higher probability of an academic, physician, non-physician or medical upload source (P < 0.005), and a higher NPSS score was associated with a higher probability of an academic source (P = 0.001) than of an individual upload source.ConclusionsYouTube videos pertaining to neck pain contain low quality, low reliability, and incomplete information. Patients may be put at risk for health complications due to inaccurate, and incomplete information, particularly during the COVID-19 crisis. Academic groups should be committed to high-quality video production and promotion to YouTube users.

“…As the rate of health literacy increases, the possibility of accessing accurate information through such channels increases 6 . There are several studies in the literature investigating the reliability and accuracy of health‐related videos on YouTube and evaluating the impact of such videos on the decision‐making process of individuals 7‐12 . In these studies, quality of the videos has been examined using several criteria.…”

[7][8][9][10][11][12] In these studies, quality of the videos has been examined using several criteria. However, due to the unlimited variety of videos, there is no consensus on the quality, effectiveness, reliability, and accuracy of most health-related content on YouTube.…”

Objectives: In this study, we aimed to analyze scientific quality and content of female urethroplasty videos on YouTube.Methods: We searched YouTube using the "female urethroplasty", "female urethral stricture", and "urethroplasty" keywords on February 22, 2022. The quality and content of videos were analyzed using the Global Quality Score (GQS) and Female Urethroplasty-Specific Checklist Score (FUSCS) which was developed by our clinic.Video analysis was performed by two independent urologists. The relationship between the video characteristics and GQS and FUSCS was examined.Results: A total of 38 videos were analyzed. Fourteen (36.8%) videos were uploaded by academic sources such as urology societies and universities/hospitals, while 24 (63.2%) videos were uploaded by urologists. The median GQS was 3 (range, 2-4) and the median FUSCS was 8 (range, 5-9) for all videos. The Cohen's kappa was 0.834 for GQS and 0.899 for FUSCS, indicating a high level of agreement between the observers. The median GQS was 4 (range, 4-5) and the median FUSCS was 9 (range, 8-10) for academic videos, indicating a statistically significantly higher scores than the urologists videos (p = .002 and p < .001, respectively). Conclusion:Academic videos on female urethroplasty on YouTube have adequate scientific quality and content for both patients and healthcare professionals. The number of videos by academic sources on female urethroplasty should be increased and individuals should be encouraged to search such videos on search engines.
