Social media use has grown across healthcare delivery and practice, with dramatic changes occurring in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The purpose of this study was to conduct a comprehensive systematic review to determine the current landscape of social media use by (1) orthopaedic surgery residencies/fellowship training programs and (2) individual orthopaedic surgeons and the change in use over time.
We searched 3 electronic databases (PubMed, MEDLINE, and Embase) from their inception to April 2022 for all studies that analyzed the use of social media in orthopaedic surgery. Two reviewers independently determined study eligibility, rated study quality, and extracted data. Methodology was in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines.
Twenty-eight studies were included, of which 11 analyzed social media use by orthopaedic surgery residency and fellowship training programs and 17 examined its use by individual orthopaedic surgeons. Among residency and fellowship programs, Instagram was identified as the most common platform used, with 42% to 88% of programs reporting program-specific Instagram accounts, followed by Twitter/X (20%-52%) and Facebook (10%-38%). Social media was most commonly used by programs for recruitment and information dissemination to prospective residency applicants (82% and 73% of included studies, respectively). After the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a 620% and 177% increase in the number of training programs with Instagram and Twitter/X accounts, respectively. Individual use of social media ranged from 1.7% to 76% (Twitter/X), 10% to 73% (Facebook), 0% to 61% (Instagram), 22% to 61% (LinkedIn), and 6.5% to 56% (YouTube).
Instagram, Twitter/X, and Facebook are the premier platforms that patients, residency applicants, and institutions frequent. With the continued growth of social media use anticipated, it will be critical for institutions and individuals to create and abide by guidelines outlining respectful and professional integration of social media into practice.

社交媒体在医疗保健服务和实践中的使用不断增加，尤其是在应对冠状病毒（COVID-19）大流行期间发生了巨大变化。本研究的目的是进行一项全面的系统评价，以确定（1）骨科手术住院医师培训/ fellowship培训项目以及（2）个体骨科外科医生使用社交媒体的现状以及随时间的使用变化情况。
我们检索了3个电子数据库（PubMed、MEDLINE和Embase）自创建至2022年4月期间所有分析社交媒体在骨科手术中使用情况的研究。两名评审员独立确定研究的纳入资格、评估研究质量并提取数据。方法遵循系统评价和Meta分析的首选报告项目指南。
共纳入28项研究，其中11项分析了骨科手术住院医师培训和fellowship培训项目对社交媒体的使用情况，17项研究了个体骨科外科医生对社交媒体的使用情况。在住院医师培训和fellowship培训项目中，Instagram被确定为最常用的平台，42%至88%的项目报告有特定项目的Instagram账户，其次是Twitter/X（20%-52%）和Facebook（10%-38%）。这些项目使用社交媒体最常见的目的是招聘和向前瞻性住院医师申请人传播信息（分别占纳入研究的82%和73%）。在COVID-19大流行开始后，拥有Instagram和Twitter/X账户的培训项目数量分别增加了620%和177%。个体对社交媒体的使用比例范围为：Twitter/X为1.7%至76%，Facebook为10%至73%，Instagram为0%至61%，LinkedIn为22%至61%，YouTube为6.5%至56%。
Instagram、Twitter/X和Facebook是患者、住院医师申请人和机构经常使用的主要平台。随着社交媒体使用的持续增长，机构和个人制定并遵守关于将社交媒体以尊重和专业的方式融入实践的指南至关重要。
