Otolaryngology surgical education continues to evolve where trainees increasingly use videos to learn technical skills. Trainees commonly use YouTube, but no study to date has evaluated the educational quality (EQ) of otologic surgical videos on YouTube. We aim to assess the EQ of cholesteatoma surgical videos. Cholesteatoma surgical videos were queried using YouTube search terms, assessed using LAParoscopic surgery Video Educational GuidelineS (LAP-VEGaS), a validated assessment tool for publication, and categorized into low (0-6), medium (7-12), and high (13-18) EQ groups. In total, 74 videos were identified (mean LAP-VEGaS score = 9.6 ± 4.0) and 44.6% had medium EQ. Videos commonly lacked graphic aids to highlight anatomy (71.6%) and postprocedural outcomes (68.9%). LAP-VEGaS scores were greater in videos originating from US surgeons compared to non-US surgeons (12.4 ± 3.4 vs 8.0 ± 3.5; < .001). Our study highlights that otolaryngology trainees may experience difficulty finding high-EQ cholesteatoma surgery videos on YouTube. Areas for improved EQ content are discussed. : IV.
耳鼻喉科外科教育不断发展,学员越来越多地使用视频来学习技术技能。学员通常使用YouTube,但迄今为止尚无研究评估YouTube上耳科手术视频的教育质量(EQ)。我们旨在评估胆脂瘤手术视频的EQ。使用YouTube搜索词查询胆脂瘤手术视频,使用腹腔镜手术视频教育指南(LAP-VEGaS)进行评估,LAP-VEGaS是一种经过验证的用于出版物的评估工具,并将其分为低(0-6)、中(7-12)和高(13-18)EQ组。总共识别出74个视频(平均LAP-VEGaS评分为9.6±4.0),44.6%的视频具有中等EQ。视频通常缺乏突出解剖结构(71.6%)和术后结果(68.9%)的图形辅助工具。与非美国外科医生相比,来自美国外科医生的视频LAP-VEGaS评分更高(12.4±3.4对8.0±3.5;P<0.001)。我们的研究强调,耳鼻喉科实习生可能难以在YouTube上找到高EQ的胆脂瘤手术视频。讨论了提高EQ内容的领域。:IV。
