The operating room environment demands high levels of teamwork and interprofessional collaboration, yet current training programs often lack sufficient opportunities to develop these essential skills. Few studies have explored the impact of Interprofessional Education (IPE) based on digital information technology in improving the collaboration and learning among newly enrolled medical staff in the operating room.
This study aimed to design, implement, and evaluate a digital information technology-based IPE training program for newly enrolled medical staff in the operating room. The evaluation focused on the effects of the program on the participants' expertise, operational knowledge, team communication skills, and application of these skills in clinical practice.
Sixty-eight newly enrolled medical staff from surgical departments in a tertiary hospital in Shanxi province were included in this study from January 2021 to December 2022. The participants engaged in an IPE training curriculum that utilized digital information technology, featuring courses and case studies specifically tailored to the operating room environment. Post-training assessments included evaluation of test scores of expertise course, evaluation of surgical simulation operations (operational knowledge and communication), and the International Interprofessional Collaboration Competency Attainment Survey (ICCAS). The effectiveness of the training was assessed by evaluating improvements in communication skills, application of practical knowledge, and teamwork in surgical contexts.
Expertise course evaluation and reflection revealed that the new enrolled medical staff in the operating room had a deep understanding of the knowledge. At the same time, they are better able to understand and master the nursing mode in the process of different professional surgery, and said that they would like to cooperate with surgeon and anesthesiologist during the surgical operation. The score of the Interprofessional Collaborative Competency Attainment Survey (ICCAS) increased significantly (P < 0.05), indicating that the communication and collaboration skills of the new enrolled medical staff in operating room were further improved, and that they were more familiar with the patient-centered teamwork mode.
This study provides a valuable reference for the design and implementation of IPE programs based on digital information technology in the operating room. It highlights the importance of such programs in enhancing the understanding and cross-disciplinary communication skills for newly enrolled medical staff, ultimately improving patient care through better teamwork.
手术室环境要求高度的团队合作和跨专业协作，但当前的培训计划往往缺乏足够的机会来发展这些基本技能。很少有研究探讨基于数字信息技术的跨专业教育（IPE）如何提高手术室新入职医务人员的协作和学习能力。
本研究旨在设计、实施和评估基于数字信息技术的手术室新入职医务人员跨专业教育培训计划。评估重点是该计划对参与者专业知识、操作知识、团队沟通技巧以及将这些技能应用于临床实践的影响。
本研究纳入了 2021 年 1 月至 2022 年 12 月山西省某三级医院外科科室的 68 名新入职医务人员。参与者参与了基于数字信息技术的跨专业教育培训课程，该课程包括专门针对手术室环境的课程和案例研究。培训后评估包括专业知识课程的测试成绩评估、手术模拟操作的评估（操作知识和沟通）以及国际跨专业协作能力达成调查（ICCAS）。通过评估手术环境中的沟通技巧、实践知识的应用和团队合作的改进来评估培训的效果。
专业知识课程的评估和反思表明，手术室新入职医务人员对知识有了深刻的理解。同时，他们能够更好地理解和掌握不同专业手术过程中的护理模式，并表示在手术过程中愿意与外科医生和麻醉师合作。跨专业协作能力达成调查（ICCAS）的得分显著提高（P<0.05），表明手术室新入职医务人员的沟通和协作能力得到了进一步提高，他们更加熟悉以患者为中心的团队合作模式。
本研究为基于数字信息技术的手术室跨专业教育培训计划的设计和实施提供了有价值的参考。它强调了此类计划在提高新入职医务人员的理解和跨学科沟通技能方面的重要性，最终通过更好的团队合作提高患者护理水平。
