INTRODUCTION
Interprofessional education and collaborative practice have emerged as learning and clinical practice
initiatives to promote optimal patient care. Interprofessional education refers to occasions when
members [or students] of two or more professions learn with, from and about one another to improve
collaboration and the quality of care (Centre for the Advancement of Interprofessional Education
2002). Collaborative practice is an interprofessional process of communication and decision making that
enables the separate and shared knowledge and skills of health care providers to synergistically
influence the patient care provided (Way et al 2000). Evaluation is a critical component of such
initiatives; however, finding the right tools to measure outcomes can be challenging.

This report provides an inventory of quantitative tools measuring outcomes of interprofessional
education or collaborative practice, and describes the development of this inventory. This project was
completed by a working group of the Research and Evaluation Subcommittee of the Canadian
Interprofessional Health Collaborative (CIHC). In 2005, the CIHC was formed to promote collaboration in
health and education across Canada. The mandate of the CIHC Research and Evaluation Subcommittee
is to strengthen and mobilize research and evaluation capacity in interprofessional education and
collaborative practice in Canada.

This comprehensive inventory of quantitative tools measuring outcomes of interprofessional education
and collaborative practice is designed to assist researchers and evaluators in determining which of the
many published tools to use in various contexts. This inventory is more recent and/or comprehensive
than other quantitative tool inventories on the same topic (Canadian Interprofessional Health
Collaborative 2009, Carpenter & Dickinson 2008, Heinemann & Zeiss 2002).
METHODS
Inventory focus

The tools in this inventory measure at least one outcome that relates specifically to interprofessional
education or collaborative practice. These outcomes are modeled on the work of Carpenter and
Dickinson (2008) who catalogued 18 tools of interprofessional education sorted according to Barrs
(2005) six-level framework of educational outcomes (which was based on the Kirkpatrick [1967] four-
level typology). To maintain a consistent approach, we used the Barr (2005) framework to organize the
tools in this review, with modifications. We excluded learners reactions because we were not
interested in participants satisfaction with particular learning events, and we replaced benefits to
patients with patient satisfaction to be more precise in identifying what the tools captured. We
added provider satisfaction to capture providers perspectives towards their experiences of working
together. For both patient and providers, satisfaction had to be directly related to interprofessional
education or collaborative aspects of care delivery, rather than satisfaction in general. The six outcomes
are shown in Box 1.

Literature Search

A systematic search of the published literature was conducted with the assistance of a librarian. The
search strategy was designed to capture academic articles related to quantitative measurement of
interprofessional education and collaboration. Key concepts were searched using MeSH (Medical
Subject Headings) and key words. The search terms used in each database are shown in Box 2. Initially,
databases were searched for articles in English from January 2000 to October 2009. A second search was
conducted in May 2010 to retrieve newer publications and to include the terms validity and
psychometrics from January 2000 onward. Although a search of the grey literature was not conducted
due to resource constraints, reports of projects from the Interprofessional Education for Collaborative
Patient-Centred Care (IECPCP) initiative, funded by Health Canada from 2003 to 2007, were reviewed for
relevant tools. The tools from the IECPCP reports were included in this inventory if they provided
additional psychometrics on previously published tools or if the tools were not previously published. 1

Two hand searches were also conducted. The first search consisted of reviewing references of retrieved
articles if the article contained references about earlier use(s) of a tool or further methodological
details. The second search involved reviewing journals identified by the team as relevant for research on
interprofessional education and collaborative practice. These journals, reviewed from 2000 to 2010,
were Journal of Interprofessional Care, Journal of Advanced Nursing, Gerontology & Geriatrics
Education, and Medical Education.

Reviewing Abstracts

A rigorous process was followed for reviewing abstracts. Prior to the review, 30 abstracts were
distributed to Quantitative Tools Working Group members for preliminary rating. Discussion following
this process provided an opportunity to identify similarities and differences among group members
ratings, and assisted in developing a consistent abstract review process.

Abstracts were selected as relevant if they were empirical articles and described a quantitative tool
measuring outcomes of interprofessional education or collaborative practice. Abstracts were excluded if
the tool measured general patient or practitioner satisfaction unrelated to collaborative practice, or if
the tool was specific to program evaluation (such as measuring learner reactions to interprofessional
learning).

The working group reviewers were divided into pairs and each review pair was given a batch of abstracts
retrieved from the search (each pair received between 300 and 350 abstracts). Each person in the pair
rated the abstracts independently as one of the following:
x Yes - the abstract describes a tool that fits one of the six outcomes outlined in Box 1;
x Possible - the abstract describes a tool that may fit one of the six outcomes in Box 1 and requires
further information from the article to confirm;
x No - the abstract does not describe a tool that fits any of the six outcomes in Box 1.

Each member of the pair then reviewed each others ratings. Disagreements between review pairs were
resolved through discussion. If consensus could not be reached, abstracts were distributed to the larger
group for discussion and final decision about the rating. Methodological quality assessment was not
conducted.

Selection Process and Extracting Tools

All articles whose abstract was rated as yes or possible in the steps described above were retrieved.
These articles were reviewed, and for the articles determined to be relevant, reviewers extracted
information about the tools. Once the initial review pair extracted the data, another pair reviewed the
extractions. During this second review, extractions were removed if both pairs agreed the tools did not
meet the inclusion criteria.

Any article that contained a tool measuring outcomes pertinent to interprofessional education or
collaborative practice was included even if the tool was not psychometrically validated. If a tool had
been psychometrically validated, only articles that contained further psychometric information were
included in the table. The inventory is intended as a list of tools rather than a comprehensive list of
every article that used the tools.
RESULTS
Figure 1 provides the number of items reviewed in our systematic abstract review and article selection
processes. The database searches returned 2162 abstracts. The initial search in October 2009 yielded
1622 abstracts for review, with 310 from CINAHL, 245 from Embase, 28 from ERIC, 646 from MEDLINE,
167 from PYSCHinfo, and 315 from Web of Science. Eighty-nine duplicate results were removed. The
second MEDLINE search in May 2010 returned 511 abstracts from all databases combined. Once
duplicates from the first search were removed, 300 new abstracts were added as possible articles for
review. The two hand searches yielded 240 relevant articles (65 articles from the references of
previously retrieved articles and 175 from the four hand searched journals). Of the full set of
abstracts, 416 articles and reports were retrieved for review. Of these, 136 met the criteria for inclusion
and 280 were excluded.

A total of 128 quantitative tools were identified as relevant to interprofessional education or
collaborative practice. The breakdown of tools by outcome level is shown in Box 3. Since some tools
were classified under more than one outcome level, the total number of tools in Box 3 is more than the
128 unique tools.

Table 1 lists the quantitative tools in this inventory. The table lists information derived from the articles:
name of the tool, what the tool measures, setting, sample, psychometric properties of the tool (if
provided), authors contact information, the population for which the tool is appropriate (prelicensure,
postlicensure, or patients), and other salient information. We did not appraise the tools for quality,
psychometric rigor, ease of use, or applicability across contexts, as these factors were difficult to
ascertain from the articles. Instead, we used an inclusive approach to provide a more complete picture
of tools available. Tools were sorted under the six categories of outcomes (outlined in Box 1). This table
provides researchers and evaluators with an easily accessible summary of quantitative tools that have
been used in interprofessional education or collaborative practice.
