Interprofessional education (IPE) is a key factor, preparing students for collaboration to improve quality in healthcare. Current literature implies that IPE research needs to be relevant for students, teachers and stakeholders ensuring that research answers the most important research issues. Therefore, the objective of this study was to establish outcomes of a partnership between students, teachers and clinicians to rank the top 10 research priorities for IPE.

James Lind Alliance Priority Setting Partnership (JLA).

Higher health education in Sweden.

Students, teachers and healthcare professionals (clinicians).

According to the JLA process, a steering committee was established. A pilot survey to gather research uncertainties highly relevant for participants was performed and tested by the content validity index. The pilot survey was followed by a main survey with 53 participants and a final workshop to determine the top 10 research priorities.

The content validity index was satisfactory for 23 out of 27 research uncertainties, followed by minor changes and removal of three uncertainties. After processing the 24 uncertainties from the main survey, 21 remained in the workshop. The final top 10 research priorities included measurements to evaluate IPE, promoting and hindering factors for IPE, educational models for IPE, longitudinal studies on effects from IPE and implementation of IPE.

The priorities represent consensus areas from students, teachers and clinicians to guide future research and justify and inform strategic allocation of research funding.

To examine the self-reported adherence of ambulance nurses to acute chest pain guidelines and analyse how demographic and professional characteristics influence this adherence.

Cross-sectional study.

Regional ambulance service in southern Sweden (18 ambulance stations).

Ambulance nurses (registered and specialist nurses). Of the 397 ambulance nurses invited, 261 responded (65.7%) in 2023.

Descriptive statistics; independent-samples t-tests and ² tests for group comparisons; Pearson correlation; and stepwise linear regression to identify predictors of adherence.

Primary: adherence to the prehospital acute chest pain guideline, measured with the 5-item Self-Reported Adherence scale (5–25). Secondary: medication-specific adherence; guideline-access sources.

A cross-sectional study involving 261 ambulance nurses from 18 ambulance stations in southern Sweden. Adherence to acute chest pain guidelines was assessed using a validated instrument. Data collected in autumn 2023 were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics, including stepwise linear regression analysis.

The study revealed an average self-reported adherence score of 19.2 out of 25 for acute chest pain guidelines. Mobile applications were the most commonly used source for accessing acute chest pain guidelines, while ambulance managers were the least used. Notably, older and more experienced ambulance nurses reported higher adherence scores. Additionally, a positive attitude towards the guidelines was correlated with higher adherence. Prioritisation of guidelines and age were predictors of adherence. In contrast, other demographic variables, such as sex and specialist nursing education, were not found to be associated with adherence.

The study indicates that self-reported adherence to acute chest pain guidelines among ambulance nurses is influenced by how highly they prioritise these guidelines and by their attitudes towards them, as well as their age and professional experience. Enhancing educational programmes and digital resources, particularly for younger and less experienced nurses, may improve adherence and patient outcomes in prehospital settings.
