Abstract
Background and Aim:
Team care has been considered as a way to increase the quality of health care delivery and maintain safety. However, it seems that the characteristics of this concept and how to use it need more and more detailed analysis to clarify and differentiate similar concepts to synthesize the theory. Therefore, the purpose of this conceptual analysis is to clarify and analyze the concept of team care in the intensive care unit in clinical practice.
Methods:
This analysis was conducted using Walker and Avant’s strategy. This approach is one of the methods of conceptualization and concept development that ultimately leads to the development of the theory. Literature searches were conducted in the databases of Web of Sciences, PubMed, Scopus, Iran Medex, Magiran, SID, and internet search engines (Google Scholar, Semantic scholar) between 1987 and November 2021 in Persian and English.
Results:
Analysis of related studies shows that the concept of team care is a dynamic process between health care professionals that collaborate in interaction based on participation, cognition and interdependence, trust, mutual understanding and respect, shared goal setting, information sharing, responsibility and power in decision-making and problem-solving to achieve the best and most effective outcome for the patient and family.
Conclusion:
This conceptual analysis helps to better understand the characteristics of team care in the intensive care unit and provides a common understanding of communication in educational, research and clinical settings, as well as promotes the development of theoretical definition of team care.
