“…Social media analysis may help to understand how to reach our public more effectively and how use them in a positive manner [ 25 ], choosing the better platform for the different pathologies and creating specific contents describing details of diagnosis, treatment, or follow-up of diseases, in order to reduce general misinformation [ 26 ]. Therefore, in this technological scenario, a trust-based relationship between patients and urologists should be pursued to share good-quality information and decisions.…”

In the age of information, new platforms are consulted by patients to acquire consciousness about medical treatments. The aim of this study was to assess the level of understanding and feasibility of video consensus (VC) administration in patients scheduled for radical prostatectomy (RP), comparing it with standard informed consensus (SIC). According to the European Association of Urology Patient Information, we set up a video content for RP that was translated in Italian and implemented with information about possible perioperative and postoperative complications, days of hospitalization etc. From 2021 to 2022, all patients undergoing RP at our institution were prospectively included in this study. Patients received an SIC and after that, a VC about RP. After two consensuses were administered, patients received a preformed Likert 10 scale and STAI questionnaires. On the RP dataset, 276 patients were selected and 552 questionnaires for both SIC and VC were evaluated. Out of these, the median age was 62 years (IQR 60–65). Patients reported a higher overall satisfaction for VC (8.8/10) compared to the traditional informed consent (6.9/10). Therefore, VC may play a role in the future of surgery, improving the consciousness and satisfaction of patients and reducing preoperative anxiety.

“…For example, Instagram may be a good platform for raising awareness of testicular cancer in young men, whereas Twitter may be a better platform for sharing experiences and exchanging medical knowledge among urologists. Creating contents that can yield maximal engagement is a skill that requires learning and a certain degree of expertise [5]. Social media analytics may also help us understand how we can reach our audience more effectively [6].…”
