“…If there is not enough time to discuss clinical problems during the routine workday, staff should develop good communication skills to exchange their information on the job. Recently, clinical training and simulation programs have been introduced to the IDT in rehabilitation units [23] and operating rooms [24]. Such training programs might be necessary to improve IDT in infertility treatment.…”

Purpose At present, a team approach involving gynecologists, nurses, embryologists, and the other professionals is considered necessary to provide successful infertility treatment. First, we documented which professionals were in charge during various phases of infertility treatment. Second, clinical staff and patients were surveyed regarding their expectations regarding which of these professionals should contribute during examination, during treatment and after treatment for infertility. Methods We surveyed the actual situation perceived by staff as well as the desired situation for staff and patients in relation to 21 procedures related to infertility treatment. We distributed 781 questionnaires to staff and patients at 86 facilities. Of 380 returned by mail, we analyzed 128 responses from staff who worked with four types of professionals or specialists, i.e., medical doctors, nurses, embryologists, and medical clerks, and 46 from patients who consulted these professionals during their treatment. Results Most staff recognized 5 of 15 procedures before and after treatment as being conducted by medical doctors alone. However, explanation and consultation regarding the methods and schedule were mainly performed with an interprofessional team approach. Expectations regarding professionals in charge differed between staff and patients. A team approach including infertility counselors and medical clerks was utilized and considered desirable during counseling.Conclusions An effective team approach should be established for each step of infertility treatment.

“…It was a modified version of similar questionnaires used in previously published and validated studies. 2,3,[11][12][13] Basic Surgery Skills Training Package After review of similar previous studies, 14,15 each of the students who answered the preliminary questionnaire was anonymized by receiving a code. We then randomly selected 15 students from them (Research Randomizer, Version 4.0) for participation in the basic surgery skills training.…”

“…Preliminary work, however, has shown that simulation can enhance cognitive processes among teams, such as shared mental models, 47,51 situational awareness, 52 and transactive memory. 20 Simulation has also been shown to increase coordination behaviors 48 and efficacy among teams. 54 Additional studies in these and other areas are needed to validate these concepts within surgical education.…”
