Podcasts are an emerging social media phenomenon in medicine, originating from critical care specialities and now expanding to other domains. Aided by the rapid increase in popularity of social media platforms and the advantage of accessibility, universality and portability, there has been a slow but significant expansion of podcast use in gynaecology. Current literature suggests that there is potential for digital communication to enhance dissemination of information, however there is conflicting evidence on its ability to increase users' knowledge. Emerging interest in urogynaecology presents an opportunity for the subspeciality to tailor podcasts to the needs of its users. In this review, the origins, current evidence and future trends in the use of podcasts in urogynaecology are explored.
播客是医学领域新兴的社交媒体现象，起源于重症监护专业，如今正扩展到其他领域。在社交媒体平台迅速普及以及其具有可访问性、通用性和便携性优势的推动下，播客在妇科领域的使用虽进展缓慢但有显著增长。当前文献表明，数字通信有潜力促进信息传播，然而关于其能否增加用户知识存在相互矛盾的证据。对泌尿妇科的新兴趣为该亚专业根据用户需求定制播客提供了契机。在本综述中，探讨了播客在泌尿妇科应用的起源、现有证据及未来趋势。
