Information about infantile hemangiomas on the Internet: How accurate is it?
چکیده انگلیسی

ObjectivesWe sought to measure the type, content, and quality of World Wide Web sites retrieved when conducting an Internet search for infantile hemangiomas.MethodsFifty World Wide Web sites from a Google search for “hemangioma” were examined. Relevant sites were characterized, and content was evaluated by 8 pediatric dermatologists.ResultsThe most accurate subjects were the description of risk factors and natural history, whereas the least accurate areas were photographic representation of the disease and presentation of treatment options. Four sites were considered accurate, and the majority of raters would recommend these sites to parents.LimitationsInternet sites and search results change.ConclusionsAn Internet search for information about infantile hemangiomas yields few sites that accurately depict the full disease spectrum from innocuous to severe. Online educational resources containing a broader overview of the real disease spectrum of infantile hemangiomas are needed. Such sites should include large numbers of photographs, evidence-based content, and resources for parental support.
