CONCLUSION: Our study has created an ontology specific to the MIGS based on Twitter usage over the last two years that may facilitate more effective social media communication. Copyright (c) 2021. Published by Elsevier Inc.
DESIGN: Tag ontologies are lists of "hashtags" used to standardize searches within a social media platform. We examined trending terms and influencers on Twitter based on the keyword "MIGS". We then compiled a list of top hashtags based on the number of tweets from January 2018 to August 2020. Terms were identified with manual Twitter queries and Symplur(c) Signals and selected for inclusion in the ontology based on frequency of use and clinical relevance. The ontology was then categorized by pelvic disease and intervention and reviewed/supplemented by key social media influencers for inclusivity.
SETTING: N/A PATIENTS: N/A INTERVENTIONS: N/A MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: We identified 4,550 tweets and 1,836 users while searching #MIGS in August 2020. Twenty-nine terms were included in our ontology which were then subcategorized into six groups (uterine pathology, adnexal pathology, menstruation, pelvic pathology, pelvic pain, and other).
STUDY OBJECTIVE: The creation of an ontology may enable providers to more definitively engage the public in evidence-based and meaningful discussions about women's health. The goal of this study is to review and analyze the current social media status of Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery (MIGS) on Twitter and create a tag ontology.
