Abstract:

Objective To explore the effect of Team Strategies and Tools to Enhance Performance and Patient Safety(TeamSTEPPS) teaching on operating room teamwork competency among master of nursing specialist students. Methods Convenience sampling was used to recruit participants for both groups. The control group consisted of 2021-cohort nursing postgraduates who practiced in a tertiary hospital from January to June 2024 and received conventional training(theoretical training,skills practice,ward rounds).The experimental group consisted of 2022-cohort nursing postgraduates who received standardized TeamSTEPPS-integrated teaching during their clinical practice from January to June 2025. Results After training,the assessment scores were significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group(P<0.05). The total score and all dimension scores of TeamSTEPPS teamwork cognition and attitude were significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group(all P<0.05). Conclusion TeamSTEPPS-based teaching can improve nursing postgraduates’ teamwork competency,and deserves extensive promotion in clinical teaching.
