PURPOSE
The utility of social media in oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS) residency programs has never been investigated, despite the increasing popularity of such platforms in academic medicine. As a specialty that strives for constant innovation, it is important for OMS programs to participate in the emerging concept of incorporating social media into medical and surgical education. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the use of Instagram in OMS residency programs in the United States.
METHODS
A cross-sectional study of Instagram search data was performed. The Instagram accounts of OMS residency programs were searched, and their metrics were retrieved from June 1 to June 5, 2020. Factors correlated with the total number of followers were identified. The use of Instagram in OMS residency programs was compared with that in other related dental and surgical residency programs.
RESULTS
Only 17 (18.7%) of 91 OMS residency programs had an Instagram account. The number of programs with Instagram accounts exhibited linear growth (R = 0.98) since December 2018. The median number of followers was 326 (range, 94 to 2,152), and the median number of posts was 9 (range, 2 to 40). The number of Instagram followers was positively correlated with the number of accounts followed, the number of total posts, and the number of educational posts, and it was negatively correlated with the Instagram engagement rate. Instagram presence did not differ among residency programs for orthodontics (18.2%), periodontics (5.5%), and OMS (P = .067). However, Instagram presence in OMS residency programs was significantly lower than that in plastic surgery (74.7%; P < .001) and otolaryngology residency programs (35.0%; P = .011).
CONCLUSIONS
Instagram use in OMS residency programs is growing but is significantly lower than that in related surgical fields. This may represent a missed opportunity for promoting collaboration and efficiently delivering useful information to trainees.
目的
尽管社交媒体在学术医学领域越来越受欢迎，但社交媒体在口腔颌面外科（OMS）住院医师培训项目中的作用从未得到过研究。作为一个追求不断创新的专业领域，OMS项目参与将社交媒体纳入医学和外科教育这一新兴概念非常重要。因此，本研究旨在评估Instagram在美国OMS住院医师培训项目中的使用情况。
方法
对Instagram搜索数据进行横断面研究。搜索OMS住院医师培训项目的Instagram账户，并于2020年6月1日至6月5日获取其指标。确定与关注者总数相关的因素。将OMS住院医师培训项目中Instagram的使用情况与其他相关牙科和外科住院医师培训项目进行比较。
结果
91个OMS住院医师培训项目中只有17个（18.7%）有Instagram账户。自2018年12月以来，拥有Instagram账户的项目数量呈线性增长（R = 0.98）。关注者中位数为326（范围为94至2152），帖子中位数为9（范围为2至40）。Instagram关注者数量与关注的账户数量、总帖子数量和教育帖子数量呈正相关，与Instagram参与率呈负相关。正畸（18.2%）、牙周病（5.5%）和OMS住院医师培训项目的Instagram账户存在情况无差异（P = 0.067）。然而，OMS住院医师培训项目中的Instagram账户存在情况显著低于整形外科（74.7%；P < 0.001）和耳鼻喉科住院医师培训项目（35.0%；P = 0.011）。
结论
OMS住院医师培训项目中Instagram的使用正在增加，但显著低于相关外科领域。这可能意味着错过了促进合作并向学员有效传递有用信息的机会。
