Informed decision-making relies on available information, including online resources. We evaluated the content and readability of websites published by American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association (ACPA)-approved cleft lip and/or palate (CLP) teams in the United States.
Design:
Team websites were reviewed, and teams with no accessible website or <30 sentences of content were excluded. Website content was scored by presence/absence of 20 variables derived from ACPA approval standards. Readability was evaluated with 8 scales. Readability was then compared to American Medical Association (AMA) recommendations. The relationship between website content and readability was assessed.
Main Outcome Measure(s):
Content and readability of team websites.
Results:
From 167 reviewed teams, 47 (28.1%) had nonfunctional links, 17 (10.2%) had no accessible website, and 39 (23.4%) had <30 sentences. The average content score for all 111 team websites included was 14.5 (2.6) of 20. The combined average reading level across all scales (10.7 [1.9]) exceeded the AMA-recommended sixth-grade reading level; this finding held true for each individual website. Children’s Hospital-affiliated teams (n = 86) had a significantly higher content score (14.8 vs 13.5; P = .03) and better readability as evidenced by lower reading grade level (10.5 vs 11.4; P = .04). On linear regression, a higher content score significantly predicted better readability (β = −0.226; P < .001).
Conclusions:
Websites published by ACPA-approved CLP teams vary in accessibility and content and exceed the recommended reading level. These findings could inform future efforts to improve patient-oriented resources.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1055-6656</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1545-1569</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1177/1055665619850441</identifier><identifier>PMID: 31129984</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Los Angeles, CA: SAGE Publications</publisher><subject>Birth defects ; Dentistry ; Reading ; Regression analysis ; Teams ; Websites</subject><ispartof>The Cleft palate-craniofacial journal, 2019-10, Vol.56 (9), p.1213-1219</ispartof><rights>2019, American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c365t-c382969b8b375f98383f37a2b456e34cbc2937b68420bfc9351eccacaddffa273</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c365t-c382969b8b375f98383f37a2b456e34cbc2937b68420bfc9351eccacaddffa273</cites><orcidid>0000-0002-2245-2054</orcidid></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktopdf>$$Uhttps://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/1055665619850441$$EPDF$$P50$$Gsage$$H</linktopdf><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1055665619850441$$EHTML$$P50$$Gsage$$H</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>314,780,784,21817,27922,27923,43619,43620</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31129984$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Alfonso, Allyson R.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>DeMitchell-Rodriguez, Evellyn M.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Ramly, Elie P.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Noel, Daphney Y.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Levy-Lambert, Dina</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Wang, Maxime M.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Kantar, Rami S.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Flores, Roberto L.</creatorcontrib><title>Assessment of American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association-Approved Teams’ Websites for Patient-Oriented Content and Readability</title><title>The Cleft palate-craniofacial journal</title><addtitle>Cleft Palate Craniofac J</addtitle><description>Objective:
