Title: A systematic review critically appraising quantitative survey measures assessing power dynamics among multidisciplinary teams in acute care settings.

Abstract: By valuing the knowledge of each discipline holistic patient-centered care can be achieved as decisions arise from expertise rather than established hierarchies. While healthcare has historically operated as a hierarchical power structure (i.e., some voices have more influence), these dynamics are rarely discussed. This review addresses this issue by appraising extant quantitative measures that assess multidisciplinary team (MDT) power dynamics. By identifying psychometrically sound measures, change agents can uncover the collective thought processes informing power structures in practice and develop strategies to mitigate power disparities. Several databases were searched. English language articles were included if they reported on quantitative measures assessing power dynamics among MDTs in acute/hospital settings. Results were synthesized using a narrative approach. In total, 6,202 search records were obtained of which 62 met the eligibility criteria. The review reveals some promising measures to assess power dynamics (e.g., Interprofessional Collaboration Scale). However, the findings also confirm several gaps in the current evidence base: 1) need for further psychometric and pragmatic testing of measures; 2) inclusion of more representative MDT samples; 3) further evaluation of unmatured power dimensions. Addressing these gaps will support the development of future interventions aimed at mitigating power imbalances and ultimately improve collaborative working within MDTs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
