Social Media in Medicine: A Podium Without BoundariesAli Bonar
The document discusses the rise of social media use in medicine and its various applications. It outlines 4 main uses:
1) Personal use - which physicians must be careful with due to privacy and professionalism concerns.
2) Networking - Social media allows physicians to connect professionally on sites like Doximity and LinkedIn.
3) Education - Sites like QuantiaMD and podcasts disseminate medical knowledge and some residencies use social media for teaching.
4) Public health - The public uses social media to research health issues and physicians can use it to communicate with patients and recruit for clinical trials.
When used appropriately, social media opens up opportunities for physicians, but they must understand privacy and

This document discusses the use of the internet and social media by healthcare consumers and professionals. It describes how online consumers include those with chronic illnesses seeking information and support. Both patients and professionals can benefit from social media for sharing experiences, gaining knowledge and improving communication. However, there are also risks like privacy breaches and unreliable information. The implications are that while consumers can be empowered, there is little quality control of online health information. Ethical issues center around privacy laws like HIPAA. As an Informatics Nurse Specialist, roles include educating safe usage, interacting online, and helping professionals integrate social media while avoiding privacy violations.

22 Reasons Why Social Media is the Future of Patient RelationshipsNicole Stagg
The fact is, health care professionals cannot ignore social media any longer. Existing patients expect them to be on social media, and prospective patients use social media to learn more about a provider. Here, 22 more reasons why social media needs to be a made a priority for health and wellness providers.
Canadian physicians and social media: a surveyPat Rich
The document discusses a survey of Canadian physicians on their use and attitudes regarding social media. The survey found that about half of physicians have a Facebook account but few use social media professionally. Physicians identified privacy, security, and time constraints as barriers. While most felt social media poses risks, nearly half believed it increases public medical knowledge. Younger physicians were more positive about social media's role in healthcare. The survey results will help inform new Canadian Medical Association guidelines on social media use by physicians.
The speaker has no disclosures to make. The presentation will illustrate current uses of health apps, demonstrate critical appraisal of apps, and analyze benefits and legal issues related to health apps. It will provide an overview of topics like social media usage, appropriate professional uses of social media, risks of social media use, and examples of popular health apps. The presentation concludes with a discussion of cautions and policies around social media use in healthcare.
Dear Endocrinologist, We No Longer Live in the 1990'sJoyce Lee

- Social media can increase interaction and accessibility of health information but may also spread unreliable information.
- Studies show people frequently use online sources for health information and social media for this, though reliability and privacy are concerns.
- Effective health messaging on social media requires considering factors like audience, platform, content and engagement strategies.
- Cultural differences exist in preferences for expert versus experiential health information online.
In this presentation we discuss social media definition, social media landscape, social media facts and statistics in 2013, professional use of social media, use of Social Media in research and strategies for putting social media in practice, and lastly challenges, guidelines & regulations.

Social media in health--what are the safety concerns for health consumers? Luis Fernandez Luque
Social media in health--what are the safety concerns for health consumers? by Lau AY, Gabarron E, Fernandez-Luque L, Armayones M. HIM J. 2012;41(2):30-5. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23705132
Abstract: Recent literature has discussed the unintended consequences of clinical information technologies (IT) on patient safety, yet there has been little discussion about the safety concerns in the area of consumer health IT. This paper
presents a range of safety concerns for consumers in social media, with a case study on YouTube. We conducted a scan of abstracts on ‘quality criteria’ related to YouTube. Five areas regarding the safety of YouTube for consumers were identified: (a) harmful health material targeted at consumers (such as inappropriate marketing of tobacco or direct-to-consumer drug advertising); (b) public display of unhealthy behaviour (such as people displaying self-injury behaviours or hurting others); (c) tainted public health messages (i.e. the rise of negative voices against public health messages); (d) psychological impact from accessing inappropriate, offensive or biased social media content; and (e) using social media to distort policy and research funding agendas. The examples presented should contribute to a better understanding about how to promote a safe consumption and production of social
media for consumers, and an evidence-based approach to designing social media interventions for health. The
potential harm associated with the use of unsafe social media content on the Internet is a major concern. More empirical and theoretical studies are needed to examine how social media influences consumer health decisions, behaviours and outcomes, and devise ways to deter the dissemination of harmful influences in social media.
Social Media Research and Practice in the Health Domain - Tutorial, Part IIIngmar Weber
This document discusses social media research in the health domain and presents three case studies on using social media data for health-related observational studies. It addresses some key data and technical challenges, including issues of representativeness, truthfulness, and data quality. Validation techniques discussed include comparing findings to population health statistics, online surveys, sensor data, and medical records. The document also provides an overview of common data sources for health research like Twitter, Reddit, and Facebook advertising estimates. It describes basic and advanced analytical methods like social network analysis, matching methods, and different types of regression to model observational data.
Social Media for Personal and Professional BrandingAli Bonar
This document discusses the importance of using social media for personal and professional branding as a physician. It notes that patients are increasingly researching providers online and reviews can influence their choices. It provides tips for building an online brand through consultation letters, meetings, and establishing oneself as a thought leader. While social media offers opportunities, it also risks compromising privacy and professionalism if not used carefully. The document recommends claiming profile pages, engaging respectfully online, and following best practices like "don't lie, don't pry, don't cheat, can't delete, don't steal, don't reveal."

LinkedIn and Doximity: What You Need to KnowAli Bonar
This document provides an overview and comparison of LinkedIn and Doximity. It describes LinkedIn as a large professional social network for presenting work experience and connections, while Doximity is dubbed the "LinkedIn for doctors" with over 70% of US physicians registered. The document outlines key strengths of each platform, such as LinkedIn's large user base and groups, and Doximity's searchable physician directory, HIPAA-compliant messaging, and CME tools tailored for medical professionals. Potential weaknesses discussed include LinkedIn's emphasis on premium services and Doximity primarily serving medical practitioners.
This document discusses the impact of social media on the patient's role in healthcare. It begins with background information on trends in social media usage. The methodology section describes searches of medical databases to identify relevant articles. The results section finds that social media facilitates communication and patient empowerment, but can also raise professionalism and privacy issues. It concludes that social media is making patients more informed users of healthcare services.

Aquent/AMA Webcast: Healthcare Social Media: The Conversation That Is Definin...Aquent
Active healthcare social media discussions cover all aspects of healthcare, from a full range of disease states to specific treatment strategies. These conversations can shape consumers’ view of your brand – and pharmaceutical companies are sometimes the only voice absent from the conversation. Within online discussion, which healthcare topics drive the conversation? Who is talking? How much of the discussion is about therapeutic areas – and how much is brand-specific? What do patients and caregivers share in this environment? What can we learn by using social media as a market research input? Find out more in this webcast presented by Melissa Davies, Strategic Account Director, Healthcare of NM Incite (A Nielsen/McKinsey Company).
This document summarizes Gunther Eysenbach's research on using social media data for public health surveillance and analysis during pandemics. It discusses how analyzing trends in health-related searches and social media posts in real-time can provide insights into information spread and behaviors. During the 2009 H1N1 pandemic, Eysenbach's team analyzed tweets and found correlations between topics discussed and events. Their analysis revealed trends in terminology usage, sentiment, questions asked and experiences shared. The research demonstrates the potential of social media for public health monitoring and identifying areas needing health communication improvement.
This document provides an overview of social media and its impact on healthcare. It discusses how social media has evolved from early platforms like blogs and photos to now include major sites like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. The document outlines how social media is used in various aspects of healthcare such as medical education, collaboration, research, and professional networking. It also addresses both the benefits and risks of using social media in healthcare contexts.
In these slides, I briefly outline how the Internet is changing healthcare by empowering the consumer and the e-patient. We look at data and examples from the USA and Europe, and consider the impact of ratings websites, online health records, and the way in which doctors are responding to the e-patient.
The impact from social media on public healthJosh Trecartin
This document discusses the use of social media in healthcare. It notes that word of mouth spreads faster through social media, with 906 million hours spent on social networks in 2010. Electronic word of mouth reaches more people and is 20 times more influential than marketing events. While social media use by health professionals has increased, it was still underutilized in 2012. Most Americans now turn to the internet for health information, and over half of respondents to a 2013 clinical trial came through Facebook ads.
This document discusses how consumers use the internet and social media for health information. About half of US adults own smartphones and 17% use them to look up health information. Social media allows for direct communication between patients and providers and the sharing of health experiences. However, privacy and unreliable information are concerns. The role of nurses includes disseminating effective health information online and enhancing provider-patient communication through technology.
How does social media fit into the ethical, legal and professional boundaries of oncology nursing? What are concerns and opportunities that an oncology nurse must be aware of when interacting with colleagues, patients and professional social media sites?

Healthcare Social Media: The Conversation That Is Defining Your BrandNM Incite
NM Incite’s Melissa Davies (Strategic Account Director, Healthcare) presented a webinar with the American Marketing Association on Healthcare Social Media.
As part of the presentation, Melissa shared some new benchmarking data related to online conversations within the healthcare space. “We have always looked at total volume of online discussion, and that is still important,” Melissa said. “But we are also looking at new ways to understand engagement with social media and how that differs across therapeutic areas. Our new data plots the volume of online discussion against disease prevalence as one way to measure that engagement.”
The document summarizes the use of social media in healthcare. It discusses how social media use has increased across all age groups and how it is now the top online activity. It outlines the evolution of social networking sites and tools like blogs, photos, videos and how they have transformed one-way communication to two-way dialogues. The document then focuses on how these social media tools are being used in healthcare for information sharing, medical education, collaboration, research and professional networking. It provides examples of hospitals, organizations and individuals using social media and the benefits it provides.
Freelance medical writers can benefit from using social media to stay up-to-date and network with colleagues. A survey of freelance medical writers found that LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter were the most commonly used platforms. However, many writers do not utilize social media tools or bookmarks. Writers indicated that social media is mostly used for exchanging information, professional development, and staying current on news and research. On average, writers spend 1-6 hours per week on social media. Webinars and listservs are also valuable resources that help writers learn. Continued monitoring of social media's role in healthcare is important for writers to adapt to changes in the field.
Keeping Abreast of Change: The Role of Social Media in Freelance Medical WritingJennifer Minarcik
Research on the use of social media, specifically how freelance medical writers professionally use social media, has yet to be performed. This study provides information on which social media tools freelance medical writers use for information mining and sharing, and how important these social media tools are to the success of their professional growth.
Social media is a broad term that encompasses many Internet
based sites through which online-users communicate and disseminate information. Social media networks, such as Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, are redefining the concept of community as online users can now exchange ideas, messages, videos, and other forms of usercontent within seconds
The Power of Social in health and healthcareD3 Consutling
This document summarizes key points about the power of social networks in health and healthcare. It discusses how social media is increasingly important for patients and providers. Patients are using social platforms to find support from others experiencing similar health issues and to learn about new treatments. Some healthcare providers are effectively using social media to engage patients and share medical expertise. The document also describes several digital health startups that are connecting patients, caregivers, and medical professionals through social platforms to improve health outcomes.

28. • Which “public”?
• When and why:
– Regularly?
– In response to outbreak/news?
– Awareness week / event?
– General knowledge?
– Behaviour change?
• How: which platform?
– Participate in a forum
– Can (co‐) write a blog
• What messages, what information?
• What medium?
– Written, video, photos, cartoons, infographics
• Whom do you want to collaborate with?
– You don’t have to do it all on your own!
The public debate:
Who, how, what, when, why, where?

29. • Who are the public, who are patients?
– Inpatients vs outpatients
– Length of stay, readmission 1
– “Experienced” patients, e.g. dialysis
• The public: potential patients
– Use all the means we can to prevent them from
becoming patients!

46. • Common misconceptions reported among HCWs include the belief that one
can develop influenza from the vaccine, the belief that one is not at risk for
influenza, and skepticism about vaccine effectiveness and safety
• Primary motivators for HCWs receiving vaccination during 2010‐2011 but who
did not in 2009‐2010 (n ¼ 172) were assessed in the point‐of‐vaccination
questionnaire.
– “Friends or co‐workers” (28%) and the “hospital intranet” reminders (25%) were
cited the most as motivators.
– Only 1% of this group responded as having used the social media campaign pages
directly.
• Unfortunately, due to institution firewall issues, the program was not able to
solicit followers for Facebook and Twitter by employee e‐mail.
– This could have reduced the direct influence of the social media sites.
– Therefore, it is difficult to assess the specific influence of social media on the slight
increase in employee vaccination rates.
• The social media outlets may have influenced HCWs indirectly
• Almost one‐third of vaccine recipients were motivated by their friends/
coworkers, some of whom may have been influenced by the social media.

48. • Aim: to improve internal medicine residents’ (IMR) knowledge of
correct antimicrobial use and increase their uptake of clinical pathways
and order sets through the use of social media.
• Methodology: The investigators enrolled 55 IMRs, and asked them to
follow the hospital’s antimicrobial stewardship program (ASP) on
Facebook or Twitter for 6 months.
– posted statements on the social media sites promoting the hospital’s ASP website
and clinical pathways, focusing on the pathway for community‐acquired
pneumonia.
– posted and tweeted questions about antimicrobial prescribing.
– residents were encouraged to respond, and answers were posted and tweeted by
the research team the next business day
• Pretest and post‐test surveys were completed by 39 IMRs
– median scores for Abx knowledge increased from 12 (interquartile range, 8‐13) to
13 (interquartile range, 11‐15; P = .048)
– IMRs knowing how to access the ASP website increased from 70% to 94%.
– More IMRs indicated that they used the clinical pathways “sometimes, frequently,
or always” after the intervention (33% vs 61%, P = .004)
• Conclusions: Social media is a valuable tool to reinforce ASP initiatives
while encouraging the use of ASP resources to promote antimicrobial
mindfulness.

stewardship (Pisano et al., 2016)

51. • Twitter… is the only platform that allows one to connect, engage, learn, and educate
oneself and others in real time on a global scale.
• HCPs are using social media tools to communicate, educate, and engage with their
peers worldwide.
• Twitter allows HCPs to deliver easily accessible “real‐time” clinical information on a
global scale.
– During an ID outbreak, acquiring information in real time is critical
– MERS‐CoV, enterovirus D68, Ebola
• Twitter has become a daily part of many HCPs’ lives, allowing them to communicate
real‐time healthcare information and medical alerts to a large global audience, including
those who are considered experts or thought leaders in a particular field, and to solicit
feedback.
• The “always‐on” culture of today is accustomed to bite‐sized, on‐demand learning. This
type of learning transitions to medical trainees who have grown up with computers,
smartphones, iPads, and Wi‐Fi.
• Many HCPs outside the United States do not have free access to journals, so a tweet
that provides a link to a compelling new article is a great way to educate peers and
share information

waste of time? (Goff, Kullar, & Newland, 2015)
