There has been an emerging trend of podcast use in medical education over the past decade. With the increasing number of podcasts and learners' interest in trauma surgery, it is vital to validate the quality of these podcasts.
To determine the quantity and quality of podcast episodes on trauma surgery.
DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This cross-sectional study identified trauma surgery podcasts published globally on the Google, Apple, and Spotify platforms as of May 31, 2023. An initial screening excluded podcasts not fulfilling the inclusion criteria (published as of May 31, 2023, and covering clinical knowledge or mentorship on general trauma surgery). A 10-item checklist developed from a modified Delphi consensus method was created to assess the podcasts' credibility, content, and design as indicators of quality. Data extracted from each podcast episode included the duration, setting, host and guest credentials, and fulfillment of quality indicators. Data were analyzed on August 13, 2023.
The quality of each podcast was assessed using the 10-question checklist. A score of at least 80% in credibility (4 of 5 points), 75% in content (3 of 4 points), and 100% in design (1 of 1 point) was required to classify a podcast episode as having good quality.
The initial search identified 204 podcasts on trauma surgery, of which 55 podcasts met the inclusion criteria. All 55 podcasts were published after 2014, with the majority hosted by males (85% [61 of 72 hosts]), based in the US (91% [50 of 55 podcasts]), and focused on clinical knowledge (80% [44 of 55 podcasts]). Podcast hosts and guests predominantly held a Doctor of Medicine degree (83% [113 of 136]), with 72% [46 of 64] of guests identifying as practicing trauma surgeons. While all 55 podcasts had excellent quality in terms of content and design, 20% (11 of 55) of podcasts were rated poorly on credibility. Credibility was further reduced for 60% (33 of 55) of podcasts because of nondisclosure of conflicts of interest.
In this cross-sectional study of trauma surgery podcasts, most had good-quality content and design, but there was a lack of explicit conflict of interest disclosure. Content producers need to disclose their conflicts of interest appropriately to ensure credibility and improve the quality of their podcasts.
在过去十年中，医学教育领域出现了播客使用的新兴趋势。随着播客数量的增加和学习者对创伤外科的兴趣，验证这些播客的质量至关重要。
确定创伤外科播客的数量和质量。
设计、设置和参与者：这项横断面研究确定了截至 2023 年 5 月 31 日在谷歌、苹果和 Spotify 平台上发布的全球创伤外科播客。最初的筛选排除了不符合纳入标准的播客（截至 2023 年 5 月 31 日发布，并涵盖一般创伤外科的临床知识或指导）。从修改后的 Delphi 共识方法中创建了一个包含 10 个项目的清单，用于评估播客的可信度、内容和设计，作为质量指标。从每个播客剧集提取的数据包括持续时间、设置、主持人和嘉宾的资质以及质量指标的履行情况。数据于 2023 年 8 月 13 日进行分析。
使用 10 个问题清单评估每个播客的质量。如果可信度得分为至少 80%（5 分中的 4 分）、内容得分为 75%（4 分中的 3 分）且设计得分为 100%（1 分中的 1 分），则将播客剧集归类为具有高质量。
最初的搜索确定了 204 个关于创伤外科的播客，其中 55 个播客符合纳入标准。所有 55 个播客均于 2014 年后发布，主持人主要为男性（85%[72 名主持人中的 61 名]），总部设在美国（91%[55 个播客中的 50 个]），并专注于临床知识（80%[55 个播客中的 44 个]）。播客主持人和嘉宾主要拥有医学博士学位（83%[136 名嘉宾中的 113 名]），其中 72%[64 名嘉宾中的 46 名]为执业创伤外科医生。虽然所有 55 个播客在内容和设计方面都具有出色的质量，但 20%（55 个播客中的 11 个）在可信度方面的评分较差。由于未披露利益冲突，60%（55 个播客中的 33 个）的播客的可信度进一步降低。
在这项关于创伤外科播客的横断面研究中，大多数播客的内容和设计质量良好，但缺乏明确的利益冲突披露。内容制作人需要适当披露他们的利益冲突，以确保可信度并提高播客的质量。
