description To promote the expansion of interprofessional training objectives in the curriculum of health professions curriculum at the Medical Faculty, University of Leipzig, the interprofessional teaching project between the Department of Obstetrics, the Skills and Simulation Centre and the School of Midwifery was selected to promote innovative teaching projects, supported by the University of Leipzig [] grant “StiL - Studying in Leipzig”. Using scenarios with simulated patients, students were to recall and apply theoretically learned procedures and immediate measures in an obstetric emergency under supervision and to communicate these clearly in the team. Final-year medical students from the Medical Faculty (n=15) and midwifery students (n=17) from the vocational school went through teaching situations together, in which two simulation scenarios (shoulder dystocia and postpartum haemorrhage) were implemented. The aim of the project was to integrate interprofessional collaboration into training and to learn together under simulated conditions in the Skills and Simulation Center protected environment. The following questions was intended to be clarified in the project in addition to the establishment of a sub-professional teaching unit What do students benefit most from in interprofessional teaching units? Are there differences between midwifery and medical students? Is the learning success the same for team-communicative and professional learning goals? To clarify the questions, an evaluation was carried out using an exploratory questionnaire with a Likert scale. All students particularly liked the exchange and contact with other professional groups, the communicative aspect and situational action in unforeseen emergency situations. The participants stated that they had benefited from both interprofessional teaching units, in terms of team communication as well as in professional terms. However, medical students experienced significantly higher cognitive overload regarding prior acquired knowledge compared to vocational midwifery students. Overall, the team communication learning objectives were more difficult to fulfill.
