To explore the accessibility, usability and relevance of the British Orthodontic Society (BOS) online information resource (OIR), Your Jaw Surgery.
Qualitative, cross-sectional study.
5 UK sites.
Patients before, during and after treatment for non-cleft skeletal discrepancy.
Patients were identified at joint clinics and recruited after having time to view the OIR. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 patients (aged 16-46 years). The interviews were transcribed and thematic analysis was undertaken using a framework approach.
The main themes identified were the overall usefulness, personal relevance and positive perceptions of the OIR. The OIR was seen to be useful for patients considering treatment, and potentially useful for patients undergoing treatment. Participants were looking for a personally relevant resource that would give them the best possible idea of how they would look and feel after surgery. The OIR was perceived as trusted, positive and reassuring.
Patients at different stages of treatment found the OIR helpful and reassuring. Clinicians may find it useful to direct patients to the OIR to complement a professional consultation, but should be aware that patients may perceive it as presenting a positive image of the long-term benefits of orthognathic surgery.
探讨英国正畸学会（BOS）的在线信息资源“你的颌骨手术”的可及性、可用性和相关性。
定性横断面研究。
英国5个地点。
非腭裂骨骼差异患者治疗前、治疗期间及治疗后的患者。
在联合诊所识别患者，并在他们有时间查看在线信息资源后招募。对17名患者（年龄在16 - 46岁之间）进行了半结构化访谈。访谈内容进行了转录，并采用框架法进行了主题分析。
确定的主要主题包括在线信息资源的总体有用性、个人相关性和积极看法。在线信息资源被认为对考虑治疗的患者有用，对正在接受治疗的患者可能也有用。参与者在寻找一个与个人相关的资源，以便让他们尽可能清楚地了解手术后自己的外貌和感受。在线信息资源被视为值得信赖、积极且令人安心的。
处于不同治疗阶段的患者发现在线信息资源有帮助且令人安心。临床医生可能会发现将患者引导至该在线信息资源以补充专业咨询是有用的，但应意识到患者可能会认为它展示了正颌手术长期益处的积极形象。
