ABSTRACT
In healthcare, effective communication and teamwork are pivotal in reducing medical errors. Integrating team training into health professions education is crucial. Accurate measurement of team performance during training requires reliable assessment tools. The TeamSTEPPS® Team Performance Observation Tool (TPOT), recently updated by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, serves this purpose. However, it had not been translated and validated for use in Thailand. We aimed to translate and assess the psychometric properties of the Thai version of TPOT. Employing a back-translation process, TPOT was adapted to the Thai context. The resulting Thai TPOT instrument was administered to 518 healthcare professionals who had undergone TeamSTEPPS® training. Participants were asked to evaluate two prerecorded, 7-minute simulated team emergency scenarios using the Thai TPOT instrument. Results exhibited high internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = .96) and inter-rater reliability (ICC = .98). Confirmatory factor analysis affirmed the construct validity of the Thai TPOT. These findings establish the Thai TPOT as useful for evaluating teamwork within healthcare teams.
