10. Patients are
on social
media!
• Patients turn to social
media for answers to
medical questions.
• HCPs should be on
social media to
provide patients with
the right answers.
11. Social Media is P2P
(person to person)
Doctors know how to
communicate in a
language which
patients understand.
It’s part of their
training.
13. Academic blogs are proven to increase dissemination of
economic research and improve impact.
Blogging about a paper
causes a large increase in the
number of abstract views
and downloads in the same
month.

Research is on
social media!
14. http://www.kevinmd.com/blog/2015/05/why-should-doctors-use-twitter.html
One compelling reason is to curate information. Did you
know that there are 20 million articles on Medline and
the volume of medical literature grows by 10 percent
every year? Just a few years ago, there were 24,000 new
cancer articles, and it’s impossible to keep up with all this
knowledge.
I check Twitter dozens of times a day, and to me, it’s one
of the most powerful ways I can think of to stay up to
date in any area of medicine and health care.
15. Influence of Social Media on
the Dissemination of a Traditional
Surgical Research Article
• The blog post resulted in a 9% increase in the social
media influence score and a 5% absolute increase in
total article page views.
Social media can increase
distribution of an article's
message and also potentially
increase dissemination of the
article itself.

29. Ethical Issues on Social Media
1. The doctor-patient
relationship is fiduciary:
based on trust.
2. Privacy and confidentiality
3. Informed consent
4. Dignity and Personhood
5. Patient safety
31. As social media technologies continue
to develop, identifying and managing
the ethical issues they raise will be
critical to their success in improving
health while preserving fundamental
ethical values.

32. Social Media is P2P
(person to person)
We tend to forget that both
ends of social media
conversations and
networks are people.

36. I am a healthcare provider and
I will conduct myself in a
manner worthy of my
profession, even online. I will
not use online platforms to
rant or bash patients and
healthcare professionals.
37. “First, do no harm.”
Recognizing this and the
trust that comes with my
profession, I will ensure that
the information I post, like
or share is accurate.
38. Whatever I post online in
relation to my clinical expertise
should be of benefit to my
countrymen. I will prioritize the
promotion and advancement of
health rather than of medicinal
products. I will not practice
plagiarism.
39. I will refrain from posting
information online that will
compromise patient
confidentiality and privacy.
40. I will value the patient’s dignity
and privacy by not taking selfies,
groufies or videos during
encounters with patients that
include patients’ body parts,
surgical specimens or that show
patients in the background
without their consent.

47. Social media is public
space, no matter how
private your settings are.
