5. YouTube – Medical Education
• Patient stories, study cases
• Anatomy lessons (live and autopsy)
• Surgery (robotic, laparoscopy)
• Procedures
• 3D Animations
• Quizzes (interactive videos)
• Live surgery
• Videos in research papers
• Medical imaging (ultrasound, ECG, etc.)
• Etc.
6. Good quality
• Quality of the content
• Quality of the video
(audio, video)
• Textual information:
tags, tittle, description
• Learning outcomes
• Content provider
• Target audience
• Captioning-subtitles
(accessibility)
21. Conclusions
• There are many good videos, but they are not
easy to find.
• Lack of studies on how to integrate online videos
in health education.
• Openness has also problems: comments,
voyeurs, etc.
• Informatics can play a major role: vertical portals,
integration with other platforms (pubmed,
facebook, etc.)
