Özet
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the quality, reliability, and educational value of YouTube videos related to transperineal prostate biopsy (TPB), an increasingly adopted diagnostic approach in urology. Method: This was a descriptive and analytical content analysis. In this study, a systematic YouTube search was conducted using predefined keywords. Videos were included if they were in English, 1-10 minutes in length, and featured audio narration. A total of 21 videos met the inclusion criteria. Video quality was assessed using the BAUS scoring system, the DISCERN instrument, and the Global Quality Score (GQS). Results: Among the analyzed videos, 28.6% were classified as reliable and 71.4% as unreliable. Reliable videos had significantly higher BAUS (p<0.001), DISCERN (p=0.014), and GQS (p<0.001) scores. No significant differences were observed in popularity metrics between groups. The majority of reliable videos were produced by universities or non-profit organizations, yet 68.8% of institution-based videos were still classified as unreliable. Conclusions: YouTube videos on transperineal prostate biopsy generally exhibited low educational quality and reliability. Institutional affiliation did not guarantee content quality. There is a pressing need for structured, evidence-based, and patient-centered educational video content. Healthcare professionals and institutions must take active responsibility in producing reliable digital resources for patient education.
