Videos with physician authorship, (59% of included videos), were found to have a higher mean EQIP score and video views than those posted by patients.. Whether the search term used was the appropriate medical terminology for the procedure or a non-expert description, such as “otoplasty” versus “ear surgery,” influenced how many of the top 50 videos were relevant to plastic surgery and the average EQIP score for that search.
