Does the Quality, Accuracy, and Readability of Information about Lateral Epicondylitis on the Internet Vary with the Search Term Used?

Abstract

Reliable information about lateral epicondylitis is available online, especially from specialty societies. However, the quality and accuracy of information vary significantly with the search term, website author, and order of search results. This leaves less educated patients at a disadvantage, particularly because the information we encountered is above the reading level recommended for the general public.
