title: Transformational Teamwork: Exploring the Impact of Nursing Teamwork on Nurse-Sensitive Quality Indicators.
abstract: The purpose of this research was to investigate the relationship between nursing teamwork and NDNQI outcomes including pressure ulcers, falls, and catheter-associated urinary tract infections. Correlational analysis resulted in statistically significant relationships. Improving teamwork in medical-surgical acute care units can transform care and impact the occurrence of preventable adverse outcomes.
