Résumé
Objective YouTube (YouTube LLC, San Bruno, California, United States) is used as a primary resource for many patients looking to gain healthcare knowledge. Recently, YouTube made efforts to increase the quality of posted content by accrediting trusted healthcare sources. With an increasing emphasis being placed on minimally invasive options, this study was done to investigate the quality of YouTube videos on MitraClip™ (Abbott Laboratories, Chicago, Illinois, United States) with respect to patient education. Methods YouTube was searched using the keyword "MitraClip". A total of 66 videos were evaluated, with 32 of those videos being included for final analysis after applying exclusionary criteria. Three independent reviewers separately scored the videos using the Global Quality Scale. Likes, dislikes, views, comments, and dates of upload were also recorded. Two-tailed t-tests were used to determine statistical significance. Results MitraClip videos on YouTube proved to be of medium quality, receiving an average Global Quality Scale score of 3.39. When stratified by the new YouTube accreditation process, those with accreditation had a significantly higher Global Quality Scale score of 4.11, while non-accredited videos had an average Global Quality Scale score of 3.12 (p<0.01). Shorter and more patient-friendly videos were also significantly lower in quality (p<0.05). Conclusion The YouTube accreditation process has demonstrated initial success at regulating the quality of MitraClip content, thereby reducing the spread of misinformation. However, this progress is undermined by the lack of unique videos present on the platform. Increasing the amount of original content about MitraClip may allow viewers to diversify their educational sources and ultimately gain a better understanding of the procedure.
