Résumé

Background : Alors que la formation médicale s'oriente vers un enseignement fondé sur les compétences, des efforts accrus sont déployés pour comprendre comment les équipes de soins de santé fonctionnent de manière compétente. Si de nombreux travaux ont porté sur les compétences requises pour être un bon externe, peu d'entre eux ont abordé cette question dans le contexte du fonctionnement et de l'intégration de l'équipe. Notre objectif principal est d'identifier comment les externes s'intègrent et contribuent avec succès aux équipes d'enseignement clinique.

Méthodes : Nous avons effectué une revue exploratoire de la littérature en utilisant la base de données Ovid MEDLINE. Les données ont été extraites et analysées thématiquement conformément à l'approche de l'analyse descriptive d'Arksey et O'Malley (2005).

Résultats : Sur les 1 368 articles issus de notre recherche, 12 études ont été incluses dans cette analyse. Sept thèmes principaux ont été identifiés parmi les études incluses : (1) communication (2) prise de responsabilité et autonomie appropriée (3) humilité et savoir quand demander de l'aide (4) identité en tant que membre de l'équipe, (5) efficacité personnelle (6) établissement de liens et de relations (7) défense des intérêts des patients.

Conclusion : L'analyse de ces thèmes a permis de dégager quatre grandes conclusions : (i) l'importance des compétences en matière de documentation et de communication pour la contribution à l'équipe (ii) le lien important entre le développement de l'identité professionnelle et l'efficacité personnelle (iii) l’importance d’établir un rapport entre les membres de l'équipe pour bâtir une confiance réciproque (iv) le rôle des externes en tant que défenseurs des intérêts des patients est mal compris. Cette analyse montre également qu'il y a une relative pénurie de littérature dans ce domaine. Plus de travaux sont nécessaires pour élaborer des orientations claires sur la manière dont les externes devraient exercer ces compétences dans le contexte du fonctionnement et de l'intégration de l'équipe.
