Access to quality and reliable information sources during pregnancy, which is a special period, is important for both maternal and fetal health. The reliability and quality of the information obtained from video platforms such as YouTube are important. This study was designed to evaluate the quality and reliability of YouTube videos on thyroid disorders which are common during pregnancy. A total of 248 videos found on YouTube with the keywords 'thyroid disorders during pregnancy,' 'pregnancy and thyroid disorders' and 'pregnancy and thyroid gland' were recorded. After applying criteria, the remaining 68 videos were evaluated. General characteristics of the videos, modified DISCERN scoring and Global Quality Scale (GQS) scoring were performed. The videos were divided into two groups based on their sources: Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and Internal Medicine/Endocrinology physicians. A 10-parameter scoring system including necessary information about thyroid disease during pregnancy was used. As a result of the analysis of 68 videos evaluated in the study; it was observed that the information on diagnosis and treatment in the videos prepared by Internal Medicine/Endocrinology physicians regarding of thyroid diseases in pregnancy was better than the videos prepared by Obstetrics and Gynecology physicians (p<0.05). When videos were evaluated in terms of quality and reliability, both groups were found to have similar quality and reliability. When all videos were analyzed, 41% were classified of high quality, 41% were of medium quality, and 18% were of low quality. The quality and reliability of YouTube videos on thyroid diseases during pregnancy were found to be high. However, the video content needs to be more comprehensive.

Özel bir dönem olan gebelikte kaliteli ve güvenilir bilgi kaynağına ulaşım hem anne hem de fetüs sağlığı için önemlidir. Bu dönemde YouTube gibi video platformlarından öğrenilen bilgilerin güvenilirliği ve kalitesi önemlidir. gebelik döneminde sık görülen tiroid bozuklukları ile ilgili YouTube video kalite ve güvenilirliğinin değerlendirilmesi için bu çalışma dizayn edilmiştir. YouTube’da, ‘gebelik döneminde tiroid hastalıkları’, ‘gebelik ve tiroid bozuklukları’ ve ‘gebelik ve tiroid bezi’ anahtar kelimeleri ile bulunan 248 video kaydedildi. Dışlama kriterleri sonrasında kalan 68 video değerlendirildi. Videoların genel özellikleri, modifiye DISCERN skorlaması ve Global Quality Scale (GQS) skorlaması yapıldı. Videolar kaynaklarına göre Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum doktorları ile İç Hastalıkları/Endokrinoloji doktorları olmak üzere iki gruba ayrıldı. Gebelik döneminde tiroid hastalığı ile ilgili gerekli bilgileri içeren 10 parametrelik bir puanlama sistemi kullanıldı. Çalışmada değerlendirilen 68 video analizinin sonucunda; gebelikte tiroid hastalıkları açısından İç Hastalıkları/Endokrinoloji doktorlarının hazırladıkları videolarda tanı ve tedavi konusundaki bilgilerin Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum doktorlarının hazırladığı videolardan daha iyi olduğu görüldü (p< 0,05). Paylaşılan videoların, kalite ve güvenilirlik açısından değerlendirildiğinde her iki grupta benzer kalite ve güvenilirlikte olduğu görüldü. Videoların tamamı incelendiğinde %41’inin yüksek kalitede, %41’inin orta kalitede, %18’inin düşük kalitede olduğu görüldü. Gebelikte tiroid hastalıkları ile ilgili YouTube’da yayınlanan videoların kalite ve güvenilirliği yüksek bulunmuştur. Ancak video içeriklerinin daha kapsamlı hale getirilmesi gerekmektedir.
