Teamwork among health care professionals has been found to improve patient outcomes and reduce burnout. Surveys from individual team members are often used to measure the effectiveness of teamwork performance, as they provide an efficient way to capture various constructs of teamwork. This allows evaluators to better understand team functioning, areas of strength, and to identify potential areas for improvement. However, the majority of published surveys are yet to be validated. We conducted a review of psychometric evidence to identify instruments frequently used in practice and identified in the literature. The databases searched included MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and PsycINFO. After excluding duplicates and irrelevant articles, 15 articles met the inclusion criteria for full assessment. Seven surveys were validated and most frequently identified in the literature. This review aims to facilitate the selection of instruments that are most appropriate for research and clinical practice. More research is required to develop surveys that better reflect the current reality of teamwork in our evolving health system, including a greater consideration for patient as team members. Additionally, more research is needed to encompass an increasing development of team assessment tools.
医护人员之间的团队合作已被发现可以改善患者的预后并减少职业倦怠。通常使用个别团队成员的调查来衡量团队合作绩效的有效性，因为它们提供了一种高效的方式来捕捉团队合作的各种构建。这使评估者能够更好地了解团队的运作情况、优势领域，并确定潜在的改进领域。然而，大多数已发表的调查尚未得到验证。我们对心理测量学证据进行了审查，以确定在实践中经常使用并在文献中发现的工具。搜索的数据库包括 MEDLINE、EMBASE、CINAHL 和 PsycINFO。排除重复项和不相关的文章后，有 15 篇文章符合全面评估的纳入标准。有 7 项调查得到了验证，并且在文献中最常被提及。本综述旨在促进选择最适合研究和临床实践的工具。需要进一步的研究来开发更好地反映我们不断发展的医疗系统中团队合作当前现实的调查，包括更多地考虑将患者作为团队成员。此外，还需要更多的研究来涵盖团队评估工具的日益发展。
