Plasticity

3.2K
Plasticity is the property where an object loses its elasticity and undergoes irreversible deformation, even after the deformation forces are eliminated. If a material deforms irreversibly without increasing stress or load, then this is called ideal plasticity. For example, when a force is applied to an aluminum rod, it changes its shape, but it does not return to its original shape once the force is removed. Plastic deformation or ductility is thus a permanent deformation or change in the...

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Social Media Engagement
  • Medical Communication

Background:

  • Growing public demand for evidence-based health information.
  • Limited understanding of plastic surgeons' social media presence.
  • Need to explore social media platforms for patient education.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Examine Twitter posts related to plastic surgery.
  • Assess the utilization of the #PlasticSurgery hashtag.
  • Inform plastic surgeons on effective social media use for education.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective analysis of 2880 tweets containing "plastic surgery".
  • Evaluated author identity, hashtag usage, subject matter, and post type (promotional vs. educational).
  • Assessed the inclusion of links to scientific studies.

Main Results:

  • Public dominates social media discussion (70.6%) compared to plastic surgeons (6.0%).
  • The #PlasticSurgery hashtag appeared in 5.4% of tweets, with surgeons using it in nearly half of those instances.
  • Surgeons' posts focused on aesthetic surgery (61.3%), basic science, patient safety, and reconstruction; 37.0% were self-promotional.

Conclusions:

  • Social media offers a valuable channel for plastic surgeons to educate and engage.
  • Board-certified plastic surgeons can leverage #PlasticSurgery to promote evidence-based practices.
  • Opportunity exists to support patients and the plastic surgery profession through strategic social media engagement.
