Interprofessional rounding is a common, yet unrequired, part of the pharmacy experiential curriculum. Little is known about the optimal interprofessional rounding structure for student pharmacists. A scoping review was performed to assess the amount and type of information available regarding student pharmacist participation on interprofessional rounding teams. A comprehensive review of five databases was completed through May 12, 2023. A total of 20 studies met the inclusion criteria. All of the assessments performed were quasi-experimental, and the majority were non-comparative studies that described the type and amount of student interventions. A review of outcomes found that all of the studies could be grouped into two overarching categories: those that assessed the benefits of interprofessional rounding to student pharmacist competencies or satisfaction and those that assessed the benefits of student pharmacists to patient care. The benefits of interprofessional rounding on student pharmacist learning and satisfaction were assessed by qualitative analysis, surveys, and student ability assessments. The benefit of student pharmacist participation in interprofessional rounds to patient care was assessed solely by a review of clinical intervention type and quantity. Thirteen of the studies described the frequency of student pharmacist participation in rounding. Of these studies, eight described daily rounding, and five described non-daily rounding. There are few studies that describe student pharmacist participation on interprofessional rounds and assess the benefits of that participation to either the patient or the student. There is a need for more high-quality studies to determine whether there is an optimal interprofessional rounding schedule.
