Condition(s) studied

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Simulation-Based Interprofessional Education: The intervention consists of two 60-minute simulationbased interprofessional education sessions for operating room team members. Each session includes a representative operating room scenario and structured debriefing. Debriefing topics include role clarity, shared mental model, situational awareness, open communication, cross-monitoring, mutual respect, and application to clinical practice.

Study summary

This single-center, prospective, single-arm pilot study will evaluate a simulation-based interprofessional education program for early-career operating room team members at Yongin Severance Hospital. Participants will include postgraduate year 1-2 surgical residents, newly appointed anesthesia nurse practitioners, and newly appointed operating room nurses. Participants will complete two simulation-based interprofessional education sessions, each including scenario-based team training and structured debriefing. Teamwork self-efficacy and readiness for interprofessional learning will be assessed before and after the educational intervention. The study will also assess program completion as a feasibility outcome. Optional semi-structured interviews may be conducted to explore participants' perceptions of the program and suggestions for improvement.

Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• Change in teamwork selfefficacy score — Baseline and Week 7
  Teamwork self-efficacy will be assessed using a 15-item interprofessional teamwork selfefficacy questionnaire. Each item is scored on a 6-point Likert-type scale, with higher scores indicating greater confidence in team-based competencies. The outcome will be calculated as the change in total score from baseline to Week 7.
