Giovanni Cacciamani, Director of AI Center at USC Urology, shared a post on X about a recent paper by Severin Rodler et al. titled “Readability Assessment of Patient Education Materials on Uro-oncological Diseases Using Automated Measures” published in ScienceDirect.
Authors: Severin Rodler, Serena Maruccia, Andre Abreu, Declan Murphy, David Canes, Stacy Loeb, Rena Malik, Aditya Bagrodia, Giovanni Cacciamani
“Readability of patient education materials in uro-oncology.
- Most materials fail to meet readability standards
- Mean FRES scores: EAU 50.9, AUA 64.0 (it should be 80!)
- Only 18.6% met readability criteria
We need to do more: we must do better for our patients!
Special thanks to Christian Gratzke and the European Urology Focus editorial team for the support in this publication.”
