Abstract

Abstract Objectives: to evaluate the reliability of information available on popular websites, in other words, websites aimed lay pregnant women, about absolute and relative indications for cesarean sections. Methods: this was a descriptive/comparative study based on the popular websites most likely to be visited by lay pregnant women and that contained information about indications for absolute and relative cesarean sections. Cohen’s Kappa index of agreement was used to analyze the reliability degree on the indications for cesarean sections presented on the websites and the scientific evidence. Results: there was a higher prevalence (62.63%) of information on the indications for cesarean sections that did not mention whether the indication was absolute or relative, and of these indications, 40.74% were not indications for cesarean sections. Low agreement was also observed among websites and the scientific evidence when the website mentioned the indication for cesarean section was absolute or relative. Conclusion: this study showed that the reliability of the information on absolute and relative indications for cesarean sections available in popular websites is questionable.

流行网站关于剖宫产绝对指征和相对指征信息的评价

摘要目的:评价流行网站(即针对非专业孕妇的网站)有关剖宫产绝对指征和相对指征信息的可靠性。方法:这是一项描述性/比比性研究，基于非专业孕妇最可能访问的热门网站，这些网站包含绝对和相对剖宫产的指征信息。采用Cohen’s Kappa一致性指数分析网站上剖宫产指征与科学证据的可靠程度。结果:剖宫产指征信息中未提及绝对指征或相对指征的比例较高(62.63%)，其中40.74%为非指征。网站提及剖宫产指征是绝对指征还是相对指征时，网站与科学证据的一致性也较低。结论:本研究表明，在流行网站上提供的剖宫产绝对指征和相对指征信息的可靠性值得怀疑。
