ABSTRACT
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the reliability
and viewer interests of YouTube® endoscopic ear surgery videos based
on the LAP‑VEGaS video quality assessment tool. Material and
Methods: The present study evaluated 720 videos after a search on
YouTube® with the keywords “endoscopic tympanoplasty, endoscopic
ear surgery, endoscopic myringoplasty, and endoscopic mastoidectomy”
during the time period between October 2005 to June 2020. The
parameters depicting viewer interest such as the total number of views,
comments, subscribers, likes, dislikes, source of videos, and video upload
date were assessed. Besides, LAP‑VEGaS video quality assessment
tool were also analyzed. Results: Among 720 videos that were
compatible with the keywords of the study, only 201 (27%) of them
were in agreement with the inclusion criteria. Low-quality videos comprised
164 (81.5%) videos, and high-quality videos consisted of 37
(18.5%) videos. The video rates presented by universities were higher
in the high-quality video group than the low-quality video group (29.7%
vs. 9.1%). Considering the didactic voice and the presence of didactic
steps, it was significantly higher in the high-quality video group compared
to the low-quality video group (86.5% vs. 22.6%, p<0.001;
97.3% vs. 85.4%, p: 0.04, respectively). The higher image quality was
observed in the high-quality group compared to the low-quality quality
group (81.1% vs. 27.4%, p<0.001). Conclusion: Overall, only
18.5% of YouTube® videos were defined as high-quality videos. The
videos classified in the high-quality group were presented by university
hospitals, with better didactic information and voice.
Keywords: Educational activities; instructional films and videos; tympanoplasty
ÖZET
Amaç: Bu çalışma, LAP‑VEGaS video kalite değerlendirme
anketine dayalı olarak YouTube® endoskopik kulak cerrahisi videolarının
güvenilirliğini ve izleyicilerin ilgisini değerlendirmeyi amaçlamıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu çalışmada, YouTube®’da “endoskopik
timpanoplasti, endoskopik kulak cerrahisi, endoskopik miringoplasti
ve endoskopik mastoidektomi” anahtar kelimeleri ile Ekim 2005-Haziran
2020 arasında yapılan bir aramanın ardından 720 video değerlendirildi.
Toplam izlenme sayısı, yorumlar, aboneler, beğeniler,
beğenmemeler, videoların kaynağı ve video yükleme tarihi gibi izleyici
ilgisini gösteren parametreler değerlendirildi. Ayrıca LAP‑VEGaS
video kalitesi değerlendirme anketi de analiz edildi. Bulgular: Araştırmanın
anahtar kelimeleri ile uyumlu 720 videodan sadece 201’i
(%27) dâhil edilme kriterlerine uyuyordu. Düşük kaliteli videolar 164
(%81,5) videodan ve yüksek kaliteli videolar 37 (%18,5) videodan oluşuyordu.
Üniversitelerin sunduğu video oranları, yüksek kaliteli video
grubunda düşük kaliteli video grubuna göre daha yüksekti (%29,7’ye
karşı %9,1). Didaktik ses ve didaktik adımların varlığı, yüksek kaliteli
video grubunda düşük kaliteli video grubuna göre anlamlı olarak daha
yüksekti (sırasıyla %86,5’e karşı %22,6, p<0,001; %97,3’e karşı
%85,4, p: 0,04). Düşük kaliteli gruba kıyasla yüksek kaliteli grupta
daha yüksek görüntü kalitesi gözlendi (%81,1’e karşı %27,4, p<0,001).
Sonuç: Genel olarak YouTube® videolarının yalnızca %18,5’i yüksek
kaliteli videolar olarak tanımlandı. Yüksek kaliteli grupta sınıflandırılan
videolar, üniversite hastaneleri tarafından daha iyi didaktik bilgi ve
ses ile sunuldu.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Eğitim faaliyetleri; eğitici filmler ve videolar; timpanoplasti
