AMAÇ: YouTube, kaudal blok gibi girişimsel teknikler de dahil olmak üzere tıbbi eğitim için yaygın olarak kullanılan bir platform haline gelmiştir. Ancak, bu içeriklerin güvenilirliği ve eğitim materyali olarak kalitesi belirsizdir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, YouTube’daki kaudal blok videolarının kalite, güvenilirlik ve eğitsel değerini değerlendirmek ve bağımsız doktorlar ile profesyonel dernekler tarafından üretilen içerikleri karşılaştırmaktır.
GEREÇ ve YÖNTEM: İngilizce dilinde yayımlanmış 40 YouTube videosu, geçerliliği kanıtlanmış puanlama araçları (JAMA kriterleri, modifiye DISCERN, Global Kalite Skoru [GQS] ve Blok Spesifik Kalite Skoru [BSQS]) kullanılarak kesitsel olarak analiz edildi. İzleyici etkileşim verileri ve kaynak sınıflandırmaları da kaydedildi.
BULGULAR: Profesyonel derneklerin videoları anlamlı şekilde daha yüksek görüntülenme ve beğeni oranlarına sahipken, bağımsız hekimlerin videoları daha fazla beğeni ve beğenmeme aldı. Eğitim materyali kalite skorları (JAMA, DISCERN, GQS, BSQS) gruplar arasında anlamlı fark göstermedi. Video Popülarite İndeksi (VPI), tüm kalite skorlarıyla pozitif korelasyon gösterdi (p<0,001).
SONUÇ: YouTube’da kaudal blok hakkında farklı kalitelerde içerikler yer almaktadır. Profesyonel derneklerin videoları daha geniş bir izleyici kitlesine ulaşsa da, genel eğitsel kalite tutarsızdır. Bu durum, eleştirel değerlendirmenin ve standartlaştırılmış video üretiminin önemini vurgulamaktadır.

A Cross-Sectional Study of YouTube Videos on Caudal Block: Quality Assessment and Comparison of Sources

OBJECTIVE: YouTube has become a widely used platform for medical education, including procedural techniques such as caudal block. However, the reliability and educational quality of its content remain uncertain. This study aimed to assess the quality, reliability, and educational value of YouTube videos on caudal block and to compare content produced by independent physicians versus professional societies.
MATERIALS and METHODS: A cross-sectional analysis of 40 English-language YouTube videos was conducted using validated scoring tools: JAMA criteria, modified DISCERN, Global Quality Score (GQS), and Block-Specific Quality Score (BSQS). Viewer engagement metrics and source classification were also recorded.
RESULTS: Videos from professional societies had significantly higher view counts and like ratios, while independent physicians’ videos had more likes and dislikes. Educational quality scores (JAMA, DISCERN, GQS, BSQS) showed no significant differences between the groups. VPI correlated positively with all quality scores (p < 0.001).
CONCLUSION: YouTube hosts variable-quality content on caudal block. While professional society videos reach a wider audience, overall educational quality remains inconsistent, emphasizing the need for critical appraisal and standardized video production.
