A total of 14 articles met the criteria and were summarised. As a result, the IPE/IPCP implementation strategies with simulation, curriculum, and training focused on the main competencies produced essential outcomes, including increasing knowledge, skills, positive attitudes, and perceptions of students and health professionals and improving the quality of patient care.
