Urethral catheterization (UC) is a common procedure carried out on a daily basis. The aims of this study were to assess the quality of YouTube as an educational tool regarding male UC and to assess the experience of newly qualified doctors regarding UC.
YouTube was searched for videos containing relevant information about male UC. A checklist for evaluating content for male UC was devised. The top-ranked video was shown to interns and they were questioned regarding their experience of UC and the usefulness of the video.
A total of 100 videos was screened and 49 unique videos were identified. The median length of video was 7 min 15 s (range 1 min 44 s to 26 min 44 s). Regarding the Safe Catheter Insertion Score, the mean score was 5.18 ± 1.64. 9 (18.4%) deemed useful, 24 (49%) somewhat useful and 16 (32.7%) not useful. There was no difference in the number of views (p = 0.487), duration of video (p = 0.364) or number of days online (p = 0.123) between those categorized as useful, somewhat useful and not useful. Twenty-six interns (89.7%) attended the UC teaching session. All reported the video to be a useful educational adjunct. Nine of the respondents (42.9%) had independently inserted a urinary catheter before the educational session.
The quality of videos on YouTube regarding male UC is widely variable. Preselected videos are deemed useful by junior doctors regarding male UC and can be used as an educational adjunct before performing hands-on tasks.
尿道插管（UC）是日常进行的常见操作。本研究的目的是评估YouTube作为男性UC教育工具的质量，并评估新获得资格的医生在UC方面的经验。
在YouTube上搜索包含男性UC相关信息的视频。设计了一份评估男性UC内容的清单。将排名最高的视频展示给实习生，并询问他们在UC方面的经验以及该视频的有用性。
共筛选了100个视频，确定了49个独特的视频。视频的中位时长为7分15秒（范围为1分44秒至26分44秒）。关于安全导管插入评分，平均得分为5.18±1.64。9个（18.4%）认为有用，24个（49%）认为有点用，16个（32.7%）认为没用。在被分类为有用、有点用和没用的视频之间，观看次数（p = 0.487）、视频时长（p = 0.364）或上线天数（p = 0.123）没有差异。26名实习生（89.7%）参加了UC教学课程。所有人都报告该视频是有用的教育辅助工具。9名受访者（42.9%）在教育课程之前曾独立插入过尿管。
YouTube上关于男性UC的视频质量差异很大。预选的视频被初级医生认为对男性UC有用，并且可以在进行实践操作之前用作教育辅助工具。
