| description | Abstract Background TeamSTEPPS® (Team Strategies and Tools to Enhance Performance and Patient Safety) is an evidence-based program developed to train healthcare professionals working in any environment where communication and teamwork are important. Two questionnaires have been developed for the program: Teamwork Attitudes Questionnaire (T-TAQ) and Teamwork Perceptions Questionnaire (T-TPQ). The aim of this scoping review is to explore and describe the current research regarding those measurement tools across the health sciences education continuum, and consider where, when, how and with whom these tools are being used. Methods The study was conducted, planned, and reported according to the PRISMA-ScR checklist. PubMed and Web of Science databases were searched with the keyword, ″TeamSTEPPS″ in December 2023. Results Forty-nine studies using any or both of T-TAQ and T-TPQ were considered eligible for this review. Twenty one of the studies were conducted with students, particularly nursing students; and twenty eight with health professionals, particularly nurses. TeamSTEPPS® training was conducted for both students and health professionals in 30 of the studies. T-TAQ was used in 26 of the studies; and T-TPQ in 17 studies. Both tools were used together in six of the studies. These measurement tools were applied to the students just before and after the training in 15 studies; and to the health professionals in five of the studies. Conclusion T-TAQ and T-TPQ were used in the studies involving the students and healthcare professionals with or without educational programs at all levels of healthcare education continuum and service, and were applied at various time intervals according to the aim of gathering data on the teamwork constructs seperately or holistically. |
