Title: "Online Health Information for Penile Prosthesis Implants Lacks Quality"
Post by: Pfract on August 31, 2023, 10:53:01 PM
An interesting paper i found on pubmed that should raise some concerns for most people reading online info on penile implants.

QuoteConclusions

While most online health information regarding penile prosthesis implants is reasonably accurate, the majority of websites are lacking in quality and incomprehensible to the average US adult patient. These findings hold true across website types, and urologists should be aware of this online inadequacy. Furthermore, future work should focus on improving the readability and quality of online information for penile prosthesis implants in order to optimize the ability of patients with erectile dysfunction to make informed healthcare decisions.
