ABSTRACT
The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has strained many healthcare systems. Google Trends is a tool that provides information on online interest in selected keywords and topics over time. The purpose of this study is to describe the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on online interest in elective shoulder pathology. Online search pattern data were obtained via Google Trends from November 2019 to November 2020 using the search terms 'orthopedic surgery' and 'shoulder pathology' search terms. Relative search volume index (SVI) graphs were generated from this data and the 7-day average of new COVID-19 cases in the United States. Orthopaedic surgery and shoulder pathology search trends decreased during March 2020 with a sudden rise in the 7-day average of new COVID-19 cases. After March 2020, orthopaedic surgery and shoulder pathology search terms approached pre-COVID-19 pandemic values despite continued increases in the 7-day average of new COVID-19 cases.
