Maküler Hol Cerrahisiyle İlgili YouTube Videolarının Kaynak Olarak Yararlılığının Değerlendirilmesi

Abstract

Amaç: Maküler hol cerrahisiyle ilgili YouTube videolarının kaynak olarak yararlılığını değerlendirmek.

Araçlar ve Yöntem: YouTube arama motorunda ‘macular hole surgery’ yazarak taratıldığında, ilk çıkan 100 video değerlendirildi. Bu videolar ayrıca, DISCERN, Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) ve Global Quality (GQ) skorlama sistemleri ile analiz edilerek skorlandı.

Bulgular: Değerlendirilen videoların DISCERN skoru 34.5±7.6; JAMA skoru 1.6±0.6; GQ skorlaması ise 2.2±0.5 idi. Sonuçlara göre maküler hol videoları, DISCERN skoru zayıf; JAMA skoru düşük kalite ve GQ skorlamasında ise zayıf kaliteye sahip olarak değerlendirildi. 

Sonuç: Maküler hol cerrahisi ile YouTube da yeterince video bulunmasına rağmen, kaynak olarak yararlılığı düşük ve kalitesi zayıftır.

Evaluation of the Usefulness of Youtube Videos as Sources Related to Macular Hole Surgery

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the usefulness of YouTube videos about macular hole surgery as a resource.

Materials and Methods: The first 100 videos were evaluated when they were scanned by typing "macular hole surgery" in the YouTube search engine. These videos were also analyzed and scored using DISCERN, Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) and Global Quality (GQ) scoring systems.

Results: The DISCERN score of the evaluated videos was 34.5±7.6, JAMA score was 1.6±0.6, and The GQ score was 2.2±0.5. According to the results, macular hole videos’ DISCERN score was weak, their JAMA score was evaluated as low quality and GQ score was in poor quality.

Conclusion: Although there are sufficient number of videos on YouTube on macular hole surgery, their usefulness as a resource is low and their quality is poor.
