Abstract
Aim: The internet and social media are becoming integral to our lives today. YouTube was founded in 2005 and can be helpful in health matters by providing quick and easy access to medical information. However, the reliability of medical videos on YouTube could be improved. Many videos on YouTube about interfascial plane blocks are widely used for analgesic purposes in anesthesia practice. In order to avoid causing incorrect and incomplete information and to prevent information pollution, interfascial plan block videos on YouTube should be examined. Therefore, this study evaluated the educational content and preparation quality of the interfascial plan block videos on YouTube. Material and Method: Educational videos of eight different interfascial plane block types on YouTube were evaluated using two surveys. Each survey consists of 14 questions. Each question receives a score between 0 and 5. Each video receives a total score between 0 and 70 for each survey. Results: A statistically significant positive correlation exists between video educational quality scores and video characteristics. A statistically significant positive correlation exists between the video preparation quality score and video characteristics. As the number of video views increases, the video quality score increases. Conclusion: Although YouTube contains medical training videos, their reliability is questioned. Therefore, it is more accurate and reliable for researchers to obtain medical information from reliable sources, academic articles, or publications of official medical institutions.
