Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the educational quality of open surgical tracheostomy videos on YouTube using a tracheostomy-adapted IVORY Grading System (T-IVORY-GS) and to assess correlations between quality scores and engagement metrics.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted via systematic YouTube search in May 2025. Thirty-nine eligible videos were scored using a modified 22-item, 44-point T-IVORY-GS. Spearman's rank correlation was applied to assess associations between quality scores and engagement metrics.

Results: Mean total score was 21.7 ± 8.9/44 (49.3 per cent). No video achieved Grade A; only three (7.7 per cent) attained Grade B. Section D (Surgical Procedure) recorded the lowest domain score (26.4 per cent). Significant positive correlations were found between total scores and both view count (ρ = 0.399; p = 0.012) and like count (ρ = 0.498; p = 0.001).

Conclusion: The majority of YouTube tracheostomy videos fail to meet minimum educational standards. The T-IVORY-GS provides the first validated procedure-specific quality benchmark for this operation.

YouTube上开放气管切开术视频的教学质量：使用气管切开术改进的IVORY评分系统进行横断面分析。

目的：本研究旨在使用适用于气管造口术的IVORY评分系统（T-IVORY-GS）评估YouTube上开放气管造口术视频的教育质量，并评估质量评分与参与指标之间的相关性。方法：于2025年5月通过YouTube系统搜索进行横断面研究。39个符合条件的视频使用改良的22项44分T-IVORY-GS评分。Spearman的等级相关性被用于评估质量分数和用户粘性指标之间的关联。结果：平均总评分为21.7±8.9/44（49.3%）。没有视频达到A级；只有3名（7.7%）达到b级。D科（外科手术）录得最低的领域评分（26.4%）。总得分与观察计数（ρ = 0.399; p = 0.012）和样计数（ρ = 0.498; p = 0.001）均呈显著正相关。结论：YouTube上的气管切开术视频大多达不到最低教育标准。T-IVORY-GS为该操作提供了第一个经过验证的程序特定质量基准。
