Abstract

Introduction:
Interprofessional simulation (IPS) is an effective strategy to improve assertive communication and teamwork skills in health professionals in training in the surgical context.

Objective:
to describe the use and implementation of interprofessional simulation to strengthen competencies in assertive communication, teamwork, and role recognition in health sciences students, according to the scientific literature.

Methodology:
This is a descriptive and documentary study, based on a systematic review and focused on a search of relevant literature on the topic of study.

Results:
69 articles related to the objective of the research were identified, which mention that the SIP positively influences the development of assertive communication, teamwork, and role recognition competencies.

Discussion:
The SIP has shown to be an effective strategy to improve competencies in health sciences students, especially in surgical contexts. The SIP is an effective strategy that should be included as a teaching-learning strategy in undergraduate and postgraduate courses because it enhances patient safety, and emotional and psychological safety in the student.

Conclusion:
Using and implementing the SIP in the surgical context strengthens the competencies of assertive communication, teamwork, and role recognition of health professionals in training. This can lead to better coordination and collaboration among surgical team members, improving patient care and safety.
