Impact of regionalized care on concordance of plan and preventable adverse events on general medicine services.
This study regionalized 3 inpatient general medical teams to nursing units and examined the association with communication and preventable adverse events (AEs). It found that regionalization of care teams improved recognition of care team members, discussion of daily care plan, and agreement on estimated discharge date, but did not significantly improve nurse and physician concordance of the care plan or reduce the odds of preventable AEs.

Interprofessional team interactions about complex care in the ICU: pilot development of an observational rating tool.
The purpose of this study was to examine the reliability of an observational rating tool to assess team interactions about the awakening and breathing coordination, delirium, and early mobility (ABCDE) bundle in one ICU. It provided pilot evidence of reliability of an observational rating tool to assess interprofessional team interactions about ABCDE.

A review of instruments to measure interprofessional team-based primary care.
The study’s aims were to develop a conceptual framework of high-functioning primary care teams to identify and review instruments that measure the constructs identified in the framework. The majority of instruments were surveys, and the remainder were observational checklists. They addressed multiple constructs, most commonly communication, heedful interrelating , respectful interactions, and shared explicit goals.
