Abstract

Interprofessional education (IPE) is an important concept in healthcare education. Evaluating IPE implementation is essential for identifying challenges, exploring opportunities, and strengthening integration. This study evaluated the available evidence on IPE in Saudi Arabia, focusing on its outcomes, barriers, and A scoping review methodology was employed to analyse research from four databases covering the period from 2000 to 2024. The search used keywords such as "IPE" and "Saudi Arabia" and followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) extension for scoping reviews. In total, 5,174 records were identified. After removing duplicates and screening for relevance, 21 articles were included in the final review. Most studies followed a cross-sectional design, used the Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale (RIPLS), and were conducted in Central Saudi Arabia. This review highlights the growing evidence for the implementation of IPE in Saudi Arabia. Although the findings indicate a positive attitude towards IPE, challenges remain in the implications for the educational system. Addressing this gap and ensuring a more structured and widespread implementation can enhance IPE and patient outcomes.

沙特阿拉伯跨专业教育的范围审查:结果、障碍和实施挑战。
跨专业教育是健康教育中的一个重要概念。评估IPE的实施情况对于识别挑战、探索机遇和加强整合至关重要。本研究评估了沙特阿拉伯国际政治经济学的现有证据,重点关注其成果、障碍,并采用范围审查方法分析了四个数据库中2000年至2024年期间的研究。搜索使用诸如“IPE”和“沙特阿拉伯”等关键词,并遵循系统评价和元分析(PRISMA)扩展范围评价的首选报告项目。总共确定了5174条记录。在去除重复和筛选相关性后,21篇文章被纳入最终评审。大多数研究采用横截面设计,使用跨专业学习准备量表(RIPLS),并在沙特阿拉伯中部进行。这篇综述强调了越来越多的证据表明在沙特阿拉伯实施了国际政治经济学。尽管调查结果表明人们对国际政治经济学持积极态度,但挑战仍然存在于教育系统的影响中。解决这一差距并确保更加结构化和广泛的实施可以提高IPE和患者的治疗效果。
