Abstract

Neurological emergencies, such as acute stroke and head trauma, require prompt and accurate treatment to reduce the risk of complications and death. Effective interprofessional collaboration among medical teams can expedite referral times and improve patient outcomes. This study aims to evaluate the impact of interprofessional collaboration on the referral time of patients with neurological emergencies. This study uses a quantitative design with an observational analytic approach. The sample consists of 120 patients referred with neurological emergencies across several hospitals. Data were collected through observations of interprofessional interaction frequency and communication, as well as recording referral times Analysis was performed using correlation tests to identify the impact of interprofessional collaboration on referral time. The results show that effective interprofessional collaboration is associated with shorter referral times. Patients referred by teams with good communication between medical professions had an average referral time 25 minutes faster than those with lower collaboration. Communication barriers, such as differences in professional disciplines and lack of coordination, were found to delay referral times. Effective interprofessional collaboration can reduce referral times for patients with neurological emergencies. Therefore, improving interprofessional teamwork in hospitals is essential to expedite patient management and reduce the risk of complications.

Abstract

Teleconsultation has become a crucial innovation in healthcare services, particularly in interprofessional collaboration for managing emergencies in primary healthcare facilities. This technology enables faster and more efficient communication among medical personnel, improving service quality and expediting clinical decision-making. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of teleconsultation implementation in interprofessional collaboration for emergency management in primary healthcare facilities and to identify challenges and solutions in its implementation. This research employs a descriptive approach with a mixed-methods design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with healthcare professionals, observations of teleconsultation processes, and analysis of medical records of patients who received teleconsultation services during emergencies. The findings indicate that teleconsultation enhances communication efficiency among healthcare professionals, accelerates the diagnostic process and clinical decision-making, and reduces patient referral delays. However, challenges such as limited technological infrastructure, insufficient medical staff training, and difficulties in integrating information systems were identified. Teleconsultation has the potential to be an effective solution in improving emergency management in primary healthcare facilities, particularly within interprofessional collaboration. Enhancing technological infrastructure, providing adequate training for healthcare professionals, and optimizing referral systems are necessary to support the effective implementation of teleconsultation
