Global interprofessional perioperative education: discussing the reality
Canadian Operating Room Nursing Journal
|November 5, 2008
Summary
Sharing perioperative education and clinical practice globally offers significant benefits. This requires careful consideration of what information to share, its affordability, and effective methods for international collaboration.
Area of Science:
- Healthcare Education
- International Health
- Surgical Nursing
Background:
- Perioperative professionals are educated in isolated environments, limiting interprofessional and international knowledge exchange.
- Current educational models for perioperative practice lack a research base for effective transfer of best practices between countries.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore the potential benefits of sharing educational and clinical experiences among perioperative teams globally.
- To stimulate discussion and research on effective methods for interprofessional and international cooperation in perioperative practice.
Main Methods:
- Utilized a case study of multi-professional perioperative learning among Advanced Scrub Practitioners.
- Examined the challenges and opportunities in transferring educational and clinical practices across national borders.
Main Results:
- Identified the need for a research base to guide the transfer of perioperative knowledge and practices.
- Highlighted the potential for global perioperative community benefits through shared learning.
Conclusions:
- Emphasized the importance of determining essential, affordable, and strategically viable information for global sharing.
- Advocated for interprofessional and international cooperation to advance perioperative practice worldwide.
