Interprofessional substance use disorder (SUD) education enhances health professions students' knowledge and attitudes. Future curricula should focus on behavioral and patient outcomes to address this public health threat.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Public Health
- Interprofessional Collaboration
Background:
- Substance Use Disorder (SUD) education is critical for health professions students.
- Interprofessional education aims to improve collaboration and patient care.
- A comprehensive review of existing SUD education interventions is needed.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate and summarize published literature on interprofessional SUD education for health professions students.
- To assess the quality and outcomes of interprofessional SUD education research.
- To inform educators and identify areas for improvement in SUD education and research.
Main Methods:
- Scoping review of literature from inception to December 2018.
- Searched multiple databases including MEDLINE, Embase, ERIC, and Web of Science.
- Assessed study quality using the Medical Education Research Study Quality Instrument (MERSQI).
Main Results:
- 14 articles published between 2014-2018 met inclusion criteria.
- Most studies (71%) included students from at least three health professions programs.
- Interventions covered various substances (tobacco, alcohol, opioids) and improved students' educational outcomes in SUDs and interprofessionalism.
Conclusions:
- Interprofessional SUD education positively impacts students' knowledge, skills, and attitudes.
