This systematic review examined various tools designed to measure teamwork performance in crisis situations, addressing the significant variability in existing measurement methods. After conducting extensive searches across multiple databases, the review identified 20 studies focusing on 13 different assessment tools, primarily used in simulated resuscitation scenarios within emergency departments. Among these, the Team Emergency Assessment Measure (TEAM) emerged as the most validated tool, supported by five validation studies demonstrating robust validity and reliability.

The findings suggest that while several tools are available for assessing teamwork performance in crisis situations, the choice of tool should depend on the specific context of use. TEAM stands out due to its strong measurement properties, although there is a noted gap in tools specifically designed for intraoperative crisis assessments. The review highlights the need for further research to develop and validate tools for these critical settings.
