“…SBAR was originally implemented in health care settings with the intent of improving nurse-physician communication in acute care situations; however, it has also been shown to increase communication satisfaction among health care providers as well as their perceptions that communication is more precise [31,32]. The role of the SBAR tool during handoff has been highlighted and supported by various specialties such as anesthesia [33,34], perioperative medicine [35,36], postoperative medicine [37], obstetrics [38,39], emergency medicine [40], acute care medicine [41,42], pediatrics [43], and neonatology [44].…”

Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation (SBAR) Communication Tool for Handoff in Health Care – A Narrative Review

Continuity of patient care is achieved by the clear and concise transfer of patient clinical information from one health care provider to another during handoff. Effective communication is a vital factor in providing safe patient care. Communication failure in a health care setting could lead to serious medical errors. Sharing patient-specific health care information during handoff requires situational awareness. In the hospital setting, most of the communication related to patient care occurs between nurses and physicians.

“…At least 24 handoff approaches supported by mnemonics to standardize verbal communication have been implemented and used (Abraham et al, 2012;Riesenberg, Leitzsch, & Little, 2009). Handoff mnemonics serve as cognitive aids and have been shown to reduce content omissions (Riesenberg et al, 2009;Weiss, Bhanji, Fontela, & Razack, 2013 (Runy, 2008), PACE (Patient/problem, Assessment/actions, Continuing/changes and Evaluation) (Schroeder, 2006) and SBAR (Situation, Background, Assessment and Recommendation) (Martin & Ciurzynski, 2015).…”

This is the first study to identify the core components of nurse-nurse handoff. Subsequent testing of the core components will involve evaluating the handoff approach in a simulated and then actual patient care environment. Our long-term goal is to improve patient safety outcomes by validating an evidence-based handoff framework and handoff curriculum for pre-licensure nursing programmes that strengthen the quality of their handoff communication as they enter clinical practice.

“…For example, the Situation-Background-Assessment-Recommendation (SBAR) protocol, originally developed by the U.S. Navy as a tool to reduce potentially catastrophic miscommunication, has been used to improve communication between doctors and nurses in acute care settings and has been shown to increase communication and satisfaction. 3 It has also been shown to improve efficiency and teamwork in multiple settings, including the emergency room 17 and in telephone consultation. 18 These tools may be particularly valuable in establishing a “common language” through which people with different training backgrounds can effectively communicate.…”

Given the gap in child psychiatric services available to meet existing pediatric behavioral health needs, children and families are increasingly seeking behavioral health services from their primary care clinicians (PCCs). However, many pediatricians report not feeling adequately trained to meet these needs. As a result, child psychiatric access projects (CPAPs) are being developed around the country to support the integration of care for children. Despite the promise and success of these programs, there are barriers, including the challenge of effective communication between PCCs and child psychiatrists. Consultants from the Maryland CPAP, the Behavioral Health Integration in Pediatric Primary Care (BHIPP) project, have developed a framework called the Five S’s. The Five S’s are Safety, Specific Behaviors, Setting, Scary Things, and Screening/Services. It is a tool that can be used to help PCCs and child psychiatrists communicate and collaborate to formulate pediatric behavioral health cases for consultation or referral requests. Each of these components and its importance to the case consultation are described. Two case studies are presented that illustrate how the Five S’s tool can be used in clinical consultation between PCC and child psychiatrist. We also describe the utility of the tool beyond its use in behavioral health consultation.
