Abstract
Interprofessional collaboration (IPC) and one of its facets, interprofessional clinical decision-making (IPCDM), are considered approaches to improve the quality of care and satisfaction of healthcare professionals in intensive care units (ICUs). Patient care in ICUs is characterized by frequent decision-making processes and technical devices. We conducted a scoping review to gain insight into the state of research on technical devices and IPCDM of nurses and physicians in ICUs. We systematically searched four databases for peer-reviewed publications and followed these up with extensive citation tracking. No article explicitly focuses on how technical devices shape IPCDM. The need for a greater emphasis on the role of technical devices in shaping IPCDM using mixed-method and qualitative research methodologies framed by sociomaterial theories is highlighted.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Interprofessional Care disseminates research and new developments in the field of interprofessional education and practice. We welcome contributions containing an explicit interprofessional focus, and involving a range of settings, professions, and fields. Areas of practice covered include primary, community and hospital care, health education and public health, and beyond health and social care into fields such as criminal justice and primary/elementary education. Papers introducing additional interprofessional views, for example, from a community development or environmental design perspective, are welcome. The Journal is disseminated internationally and encourages submissions from around the world.
