Abstract

Objective

To compare interprofessional collaboration in urgency and emergency’s teams before and after the first death by Covid-19 in Brazil.

Method

Cross-sectional study carried out with health professionals from Urgency and Emergency Services in a city of São Paulo State. Data collection was conducted through Assessment of Interprofessional Team Collaboration Scale assessing three factors: Partnership, Cooperation and Coordination. For analysis, the sample was divided into Group A (before the first death by Covid-19 in Brazil) and Group B (after this date) using descriptive and comparative statistics.

Results

In the comparison between groups (A = 94 and B = 60) Coordination factor was better scored after the start of the pandemic (p = 0.001). Tertiary services had higher scores when compared to secondary level in both groups.

Conclusion and implications for practice

In complex and dynamic environments such as urgency and emergency sectors, teamwork and interprofessional collaboration are prominent during the pandemic. Interprofessional collaboration was strengthened in the analyzer’s teams, with a significant increase in coordination of actions after first death by Covid-19 in Brazil.
