To evaluate the educational content, quality, and reliability of YouTube videos addressing anterior approach ptosis surgery.
A search on YouTube using the term "ptosis surgery" was performed between March 20 and March 26 2021. The quality, reliability, and accuracy of the contents of 38 videos meeting the inclusion criteria were evaluated by two independent ophthalmologists using the DISCERN questionnaire and the (JAMA) benchmark criteria. The Global Quality Score (GQS) and a surgical scoring system were used to assess the educational value of the content.
The mean DISCERN score was 32.8 ± 10, and the mean JAMA score was 1.3 ± 0.5, indicating poor quality; the mean global quality score was 3.1 ± 1.1, indicating moderate quality; and the mean surgical score was 7.5 ± 2.7, indicating moderate to good quality. The surgical, DISCERN, and GQS scores of the videos uploaded by physicians were significantly higher than those of the videos uploaded by private clinics ( = .015, = .049, and = .01, respectively). There was a significant positive correlation between the surgical, DISCERN, JAMA, and GQS scores (< .001). A significant positive correlation was found between video duration and surgical score (= .013), DISCERN score ( ˂0.001), and GQS score ( ˂0.001).
Videos with known sources, uploaded by physicians, and supported by audio narration may be useful in obtaining educational information. However, the available videos are not a reliable source of educational information about ptosis surgery.
评估涉及前入路上睑下垂手术的 YouTube 视频的教育内容、质量和可靠性。
2021 年 3 月 20 日至 3 月 26 日，在 YouTube 上使用“上睑下垂手术”一词进行搜索。两名独立的眼科医生使用 DISCERN 问卷和（JAMA）基准标准评估符合纳入标准的 38 个视频的内容质量、可靠性和准确性。使用全球质量评分（GQS）和手术评分系统评估内容的教育价值。
DISCERN 平均得分为 32.8 ± 10，JAMA 平均得分为 1.3 ± 0.5，表明质量较差；平均全球质量评分为 3.1 ± 1.1，表明中等质量；平均手术评分为 7.5 ± 2.7，表明中等至良好质量。医生上传的视频的手术、DISCERN 和 GQS 评分明显高于私人诊所上传的视频（=0.015，=0.049，=0.01，分别）。手术、DISCERN、JAMA 和 GQS 评分之间存在显著正相关（<0.001）。视频时长与手术评分（=0.013）、DISCERN 评分（<0.001）和 GQS 评分（<0.001）呈显著正相关。
来源已知、由医生上传并附有音频旁白的视频可能有助于获取教育信息。但是，现有的视频并不是有关上睑下垂手术教育信息的可靠来源。
