Partly as a result of coronavirus disease 2019, YouTube has become a more frequent educational source for otolaryngology trainees. This study sought to assess the quality of flexible nasendoscopy and peritonsillar abscess drainage videos.
YouTube was systematically searched using 13 terms related to flexible nasendoscopy and peritonsillar abscess drainage. Two independent reviewers assessed the quality of each video using the Laparoscopic Video Educational Guidelines.
Twenty-seven videos were deemed suitable. The mean total Laparoscopic Video Educational Guidelines scores for videos on flexible nasendoscopy (18 videos) and peritonsillar abscess drainage (9 videos) were 10.3 (standard deviation = 3.1) and 11.7 (standard deviation = 4.6), respectively. Most of the videos were deemed of medium quality. The Laparoscopic Video Educational Guidelines score correlated positively with flexible nasendoscopy video length and how recently a peritonsillar abscess drainage video had been uploaded.
The limited high-quality videos on YouTube are difficult to identify from the search metrics available. Trainees and ENT induction programmes would benefit greatly from an online platform that contains a catalogue of high-quality surgical videos.
由于 2019 年冠状病毒病，YouTube 已成为耳鼻喉科受训者更频繁的教育资源。本研究旨在评估灵活鼻内镜检查和扁桃体周脓肿引流视频的质量。
使用与灵活鼻内镜检查和扁桃体周脓肿引流相关的 13 个术语对 YouTube 进行系统搜索。两名独立评审员使用腹腔镜视频教育指南评估每个视频的质量。
有 27 个视频被认为是合适的。关于灵活鼻内镜检查（18 个视频）和扁桃体周脓肿引流（9 个视频）的视频的腹腔镜视频教育指南总评分分别为 10.3（标准差=3.1）和 11.7（标准差=4.6）。大多数视频被认为是中等质量的。腹腔镜视频教育指南评分与灵活鼻内镜检查视频长度以及最近上传的扁桃体周脓肿引流视频之间呈正相关。
从可用的搜索指标中，很难识别出 YouTube 上有限的高质量视频。学员和耳鼻喉科入职计划将从包含高质量手术视频的在线平台中受益匪浅。
