Interprofessional collaboration involves coordinated efforts by professionals from various disciplines, such as physicians and nurses, aimed at improving patient care outcomes. This teamwork enhances cooperation among healthcare professionals with diverse expertise, contributing significantly to patient safety, satisfaction, expedited recovery, cost-effectiveness, and reduced mortality rates.
This paper explores the available evidence regarding the attitudes of physicians and nurses towards interprofessional collaboration and identifies factors that influence their willingness to engage in collaborative practice.
A systematic review was conducted spanning from 2016 to 2023, adhering to predefined criteria and the PRISMA guidelines and checklist. Searches were performed in PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL Plus, Cochrane, and Google Scholar. The inclusion criteria comprised studies (regardless of design) addressing interprofessional collaboration, published within the last ten years, and involving both physicians and nurses. Only articles with full text access and written in English or Greek were included.
The review identified 13 relevant studies. The analysis revealed that nurses generally exhibit more favourable attitudes towards interprofessional collaboration compared to physicians. Moreover, thematic analysis highlighted key factors influencing the attitudes of both nurses and physicians, including education level, age and years of experience.
This review highlights critical aspects and gaps in current literature, emphasizing the need for future research to further explore these areas. Findings also underscore the importance of incorporate these insights into hospital policies to effectively enhance interprofessional collaboration.
跨专业协作涉及来自不同学科的专业人员（如医生和护士）的协同努力，旨在改善患者护理结果。这种团队合作加强了具有不同专业知识的医疗保健专业人员之间的合作，对患者安全、满意度、加速康复、成本效益和降低死亡率有显著贡献。
本文探讨了关于医生和护士对跨专业协作态度的现有证据，并确定了影响他们参与协作实践意愿的因素。
进行了一项从2016年到2023年的系统综述，遵循预定义的标准以及PRISMA指南和清单。在PubMed、Scopus、CINAHL Plus、Cochrane和谷歌学术上进行了检索。纳入标准包括在过去十年内发表的、涉及跨专业协作（无论设计如何）、同时涉及医生和护士的研究。仅纳入可获取全文且以英语或希腊语撰写的文章。
该综述确定了13项相关研究。分析表明，与医生相比，护士通常对跨专业协作表现出更积极的态度。此外，主题分析突出了影响护士和医生态度的关键因素，包括教育水平、年龄和工作经验。
本综述突出了当前文献中的关键方面和差距，强调未来研究需要进一步探索这些领域。研究结果还强调了将这些见解纳入医院政策以有效加强跨专业协作的重要性。
