Abstract
Introduction
TeamSTEPPS® aims to create an environment where all members feel comfortable to speak about patient safety concerns. The aim of this research was to determine the effect of TeamSTEPPS® mobile-based training on the perceptions of teamwork and team performance of operating room staff.
Methods
This study was a quasi-experimental method with measurements at baseline and after 2 months of intervention. The research samples included 105 OR staff (operating room technologists, anesthesia technologists, and nurses) working in 6 teaching hospitals of Iran University of Medical Sciences in 2022, which were selected by stratified random method and proportional allocation. The research tools included the demographic form, the Persian version of the ‘TeamSTEPPS® Teamwork Perception Questionnaire’ (T-TPQ) and the Persian version of the ‘Team Performance Observation Tool’ (TPOT). The intervention was carried out with sending the link of the TeamSTEPPS® 2.0 course files to participants by mobile messengers so that they could study them during five sessions, with an interval of one week between each session. Data analysis was done by calculating descriptive statistics and paired t-test.
Results
The results showed that TeamSTEPPS® mobile-based training significantly improved the perception of teamwork (P < 0.011) and team performance of operating room staff (P < 0.001).
Conclusion
With the determination of the effect of TeamSTEPPS® mobile-based training on the perception of teamwork and team performance of operating room staff, it is suggested to present this training program to this group.
期刊介绍:
The objective of this new online journal is to serve as a multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed source of information related to the administrative, economic, operational, safety, and quality aspects of the ambulatory and in-patient operating room and interventional procedural processes. The journal will provide high-quality information and research findings on operational and system-based approaches to ensure safe, coordinated, and high-value periprocedural care. With the current focus on value in health care it is essential that there is a venue for researchers to publish articles on quality improvement process initiatives, process flow modeling, information management, efficient design, cost improvement, use of novel technologies, and management.
