Abstract

Objective The advent of the Internet has provided new, easily accessible resources for patients seeking additional health information. Many doctors and healthcare organizations post informative videos on this platform, and nearly all patients are looking for videos online for a second opinion.

Methods The phrases "frozen shoulder," "frozen shoulder treatment," "adhesive" capsulitis, and "adhesive capsulitis treatment" were entered into YouTube's search bar for a normal inquiry. The informativeness and overall quality of the adhesive capsulitis videos were rated using three separate scales.

Results The mean and standard deviation values of the scoring systems were JAMA 1.25 ± 0.51, DISCERN 39.4 ± 13.4, GQS 2.83 ± 0.96 and ACSS 7.43 ± 4.86, respectively. Number of views, rate of views, and likes all had a positive correlation with Global Quality Score (GQS), as did DISCERN and ACSS. There was no statistically significant difference between the median JAMA, GQS score and Discern Criteria values according to the video source/uploader (p > 0.05).

Conclusion YouTube videos on adhesive capsulitis, thus, need to be of higher quality, reliability, and instructive quality. There is a need for reliable videos about adhesive capsulitis, with instructional and high-quality cited.
