Abstract:
Introduction Angiography is a method for defining the inner vessel wall and demonstrating flow through the lumen by detecting contrast injection into a blood vessel and projecting it onto a sequence of X-rays. This method is used to image the anatomical and architectural aspects of the vascular system. By employing balloon dilatation and the implantation of stents to widen the stenosed arteries, angioplasty is a form of minimally invasive endovascular treatment used to treat cardiovascular diseases and their consequences. People frequently rely on YouTube as a resource for awareness-raising and marketing activities. Animations and visual explanations can help patients understand the risks and benefits of procedures. Aims To assess the quality and reliability of the information on YouTube about angiography and angioplasty. We assessed quality using the GQS (Global Quality Scale) and reliability via the reliability score. Methodology This is an observational, cross-sectional study without the requirement of an ethics committee. It includes a questionnaire with predetermined criteria like time since upload, popularity, or type of uploader. The study assesses YouTube videos that include criteria using GQS and reliability scores. Responses recorded in Google Sheets were transferred to Microsoft Excel (Redmond, USA). Statistical analysis was performed using IBM Corp. Released 2012. IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 21.0. Armonk, NY: IBM Corp. All six authors assessed 10 YouTube videos using specific keywords. The study includes videos that meet the inclusion criteria. Videos that did not include the inclusion criteria were excluded. Results After applying inclusion/exclusion criteria, 57 out of 60 videos were included. Of the total videos analyzed, the majority were uploaded by various hospitals and people other than doctors and healthcare organizations. About 78.95% of the videos described the reason for angiography/plasty, followed by the anatomical area involved and the pre-procedural preparation phase. There is a significant increase in the GQS score and reliability score among the videos uploaded by doctors, hospitals, healthcare organizations, and other groups. Conclusions Verified health information should be uploaded responsibly by doctors, hospitals, healthcare organizations, or other agencies on social media like YouTube in a manner that is easy to understand, has a high GQS, and has a high reliability score, as it would make it simpler for the general population or viewers to have access to important health-related content they can rely on. Videos should advise the viewers to contact their doctors for all queries regarding the diagnosis or treatment of their health concerns.
摘要:
介绍血管造影术是一种通过检测注射到血管中的造影剂并将其投射到X射线序列上来限定血管内壁并显示通过管腔的流动的方法。该方法用于对血管系统的解剖和结构方面进行成像。通过球囊扩张和植入支架来扩大狭窄的动脉,血管成形术是一种微创血管内治疗,用于治疗心血管疾病及其后果。人们经常依赖YouTube作为提高认识和营销活动的资源。动画和视觉解释可以帮助患者了解手术的风险和益处。目的评估YouTube上有关血管造影和血管成形术的信息的质量和可靠性。我们使用GQS(全球质量量表)评估质量,并通过可靠性评分评估可靠性。方法论这是一个观察,没有伦理委员会要求的横断面研究。它包括具有预定标准的问卷,例如自上传以来的时间,人气,或上传器的类型。该研究评估了YouTube视频,其中包括使用GQS和可靠性评分的标准。Google表格中记录的回复已转移到MicrosoftExcel(Redmond,美国)。使用IBM公司进行统计分析2012年发布IBMSPSSStatisticsforWindows,版本21.0。Armonk,纽约:IBM公司所有六位作者都使用特定的关键字评估了10个YouTube视频。该研究包括符合纳入标准的视频。不包括纳入标准的视频被排除在外。结果应用纳入/排除标准后,包括60个视频中的57个。在分析的所有视频中,大多数是由多家医院以及医生和医疗机构以外的人上传的。大约78.95%的视频描述了血管造影/成形术的原因,其次是涉及的解剖区域和术前准备阶段。医生上传的视频中,GQS评分和可靠性评分均有显著上升,医院,医疗机构,和其他团体。结论医生应负责任地上传经过验证的健康信息,医院,医疗机构,或其他机构在社交媒体上,如YouTube,以易于理解的方式,有很高的GQS,并且具有很高的可靠性得分,因为这将使普通人群或观众更容易获得他们可以依赖的重要健康相关内容。视频应建议观众联系他们的医生,以获取有关其健康问题的诊断或治疗的所有疑问。
