Özet
Objective: Health-related internet use has recently increased in parallel with the Internet use. Accuracy of information about diseases on the Internet is im- portant in terms of patient education and reduction of health expenditures. The aim of this descriptive study was to evaluate the content, reliability, and quality of exercise videos for low back pain (LBP) on YouTube. Materials and Methods: In October 2022, YouTube was searched in English with the keywords “LBP exercise,” “ LBP rehabilitation,” “LBP physical therapy,” and “LBP physiotherapy.” 173 videos meeting the inclusion criteria were included in the analysis. Video duration, number of views, number of likes and dislikes, upload date, number of comments, and subscribers were recorded. The reliability was assessed using the modified DISCERN, the quality was assessed using the Global Quality Scale. Results: It was determined that the quality of the videos uploaded by clinicians was higher (p<0.001), the videos uploaded recently were of higher quality (p=0.024), and clinicians have recently started to upload more videos to the YouTube platform (p=0.021). However, although the quality was lower, the video power index of the videos uploaded by non-medical users was found to be higher. Conclusion: In this study, it was concluded that the quality of exercise videos on YouTube for patients with LBP has recently increased, clinicians have recently started to upload more videos, videos uploaded by clinicians, and recent videos are of higher quality. It is important to increase the number of quality videos about diseases on platforms such as YouTube.
