Overview

Quantitative research shows moderate readability of patient information texts about apical resection, indicating gaps in information coverage.

Key Points

  • The study found that texts about apical resection had a moderate reading difficulty, impacting patient understanding.
  • Among 60 websites analyzed, 50 met inclusion criteria, revealing 82% of readers faced moderate reading difficulties.
  • Readability was evaluated using the Ateşman Readability Index, with a mean score of 57.80±7.49 indicating a reading level around 11th-12th grade.
  • Although sufficient information was provided, gaps were noted in explaining complications related to apical resection.
