BACKGROUND: Interprofessional collaboration improves the quality of care, but integration into workflow is challenging. Although a shared conceptualization regarding bedside interprofessional rounds may enhance implementation, little work has investigated providers' perceptions of this activity. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the perceptions of nurses, attending physicians, and housestaff physicians regarding the benefits/barriers to bedside interprofessional rounds. DESIGN AND PARTICIPANTS: Observational, cross-sectional survey of hospital-based medicine nurses, attending physicians, and housestaff physicians. Descriptive, nonparametric Wilcoxon rank sum and nonparametric correlation were used. MAIN MEASURES: Bedside interprofessional rounds were defined as encounters including 2 physicians plus a nurse or other care provider discussing the case at the patient's bedside. Eighteen items related to benefits and 21 items related to barriers associated with bedside interprofessional rounds. RESULTS: Of 171 surveys sent, 149 were completed (87%). Highest-ranked benefits were related to communication/coordination, including improves communication between nurses-physicians; lowest-ranked benefits were related to efficiency, process, and outcomes, including decreases length-of-stay and improves timeliness of consultations. Nurses reported most favorable ratings for all items (P <0.05). Rank order for 3 provider groups showed high correlation (r = 0.92, P < 0.001). Highest-ranked barriers were related to time, including nursing staff have limited time; lowest-ranked barriers were related to provider- and patient-related factors, including patient lack of comfort. Rank order of barriers among all groups showed moderate correlation (r = 0.62-0.82). CONCLUSIONS: Although nurses perceived greater benefit for bedside interprofessional rounds than physicians, all providers perceived coordination/teamwork benefits higher than outcomes. To the extent the results are generalilable, these findings lay the foundation for facilitating meaningful patient-centered interprofessional collaboration. (c) 2014 Society of Hospital Medicine
