To evaluate the quality of YouTube™ videos on bladder pain syndrome (BPS) and to investigate whether they can be used as a reliable source of information. Methods The search term “bladder pain syndrome” was used on YouTube TM platform. The first 100 videos were selected. Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool for audio‐visual content (PEMAT A/V), Global Quality Score (GQS), Misinformation tool, and DISCERN score were used to assess videos' quality content. Pearson's test was used to assess potential correlations between variables. Results Seventy‐nine videos were suitable for the analyses. The median PEMAT A/V Understandability score and PEMAT A/V Actionability score were 66.7% (interquartile range [IQR]: 46.2–100.0) and 75.0% (IQR: 37.5–100.0), respectively. According to GQS, 26 (32.9%), 32 (40.5%), 3 (3.8%), 15 (19.0%), and 3 (3.8%) videos were excellent, good, moderate, generally poor, and poor, respectively. According to Misinformation tool, of all videos, 81% ( n = 64), 6.3% ( n = 5), 5.1% ( n = 4), 5.1% ( n = 4), 2.5% ( n = 2) had respectively no, very little, moderate, high, and extreme misinformation. The overall median DISCERN score ranged from 5.0 (IQR: 2.0–5.0) to 5.0 (IQR: 5.0–5.0). A positive statistically significant correlation was found between video length and PEMAT A/V Understandability ( r = 0.27, p = 0.01), video length and PEMAT A/V Actionability ( r = .26, p = 0.02), and video length and DISCERN Question 16 ( r = 0.28, p = 0.01). Conclusions Nowaday, the overall quality of YouTube TM videos on BPS have been evaluated good according to PEMAT A/V, GQS, Misinformation tool, and DISCERN score. It is possible to assume that YouTube TM may be considered as a reliable source of information on BPS.
