To adapt to Spanish the recommendations for the appropriate use of social media (SoMe) in the urological setting prepared by the European Association of Urology (EAU).
The use of SoMe has become fairly popular in the international urological community. Due to the nature of the medical content shared among healthcare professionals through SoMe, however, there is the risk of medical and legal problems. For this reason, various international urological associations such as the American Urological Association, the British Association of Urological Surgeons and EAU have published their recommendations for the appropriate use of social media. Efforts have been made to adapt and summarise the recommendations of the EAU in Spanish and to publish them in Actas Urológicas Españolas (@actasurologicas), the official journal of the Spanish Urological Association (@InfoAEU) and the American Confederation of Urology (@CAU_URO).
SoMe include well-known platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and YouTube, which have undoubtedly changed the way in which people communicate and interact. SoMe offer clear advantages for communicating between professionals, working in teams, disseminating knowledge and creating professional profiles and are increasingly used by patients and healthcare practitioners. The introduction of SoMe in the urological community has started a revolution in how scientific articles are shared, how people participate in congresses and how international urological associations communicate with their followers. However, SoMe is generally an open public setting, with potential risks for confidentiality and the doctor-patient relationship due to the nature of the shared information. The present recommendations include tools for creating professional profiles, protecting confidentiality and creating honest and responsible content.
SoMe represents a fascinating area for the communication and dissemination of knowledge, with considerable applicability in health care and the urological community. New efforts are being directed to extend the use of social media in the urological community, measuring its actual academic impact and standardising the language employed.
将欧洲泌尿外科学会（EAU）制定的关于在泌尿外科环境中合理使用社交媒体（SoMe）的建议翻译成西班牙语。
SoMe在国际泌尿外科界已相当流行。然而，由于医疗专业人员通过SoMe分享的医学内容的性质，存在医疗和法律问题的风险。因此，诸如美国泌尿外科学会、英国泌尿外科医师协会和EAU等各种国际泌尿外科协会都发布了关于合理使用社交媒体的建议。已努力将EAU的建议翻译成西班牙语并进行总结，并在西班牙泌尿外科协会的官方期刊《西班牙泌尿学学报》（@actasurologicas）、EAU信息（@InfoAEU）和美国泌尿外科联合会（@CAU_URO）上发表。
SoMe包括Twitter、Facebook和YouTube等知名平台，它们无疑改变了人们沟通和互动的方式。SoMe在专业人员之间沟通、团队协作、传播知识和创建专业档案方面具有明显优势，并且越来越受到患者和医疗从业者的使用。SoMe在泌尿外科领域的引入引发了一场关于科学文章分享方式、人们参与大会的方式以及国际泌尿外科协会与追随者沟通方式的革命。然而，由于共享信息的性质，SoMe通常是一个开放的公共环境，存在保密和医患关系方面的潜在风险。目前的建议包括创建专业档案、保护保密以及创建诚实和负责任内容的工具。
SoMe是一个用于知识交流和传播的迷人领域，在医疗保健和泌尿外科界具有相当大的适用性。正在做出新的努力，以扩大社交媒体在泌尿外科界的使用，衡量其实际学术影响并规范所使用的语言。
