Podcast 859: Teamwork Really Makes the Dream Work

Contributor: Aaron Lessen MD

Educational Pearls:

  • 33 Medical residents and 91 nurses at Massachusetts General Hospital were randomized into two groups:

    • Intervention group: 15 PGY-1 residents assigned to the same medical service floor for a 16-week period (12 weeks after adjustment for COVID-19 restrictions) alongside 43 nurses.

    • Control group: 18 PGY-1 residents assigned to the usual 4-week block rotations across 6 medical floors.

  • At 6 months, there were no differences in teamwork performance metrics including advanced medical simulations and nurse presence at rounds.

  • The 12-month assessment demonstrated improvement in performance metrics.

  • Increased time together allows individuals to get to know each other better and therefore improve performance metrics that rely on communication.
