Aim and Background: Appropriate professional collaboration between physicians and nurses can be effective on the quality of health care given to patients. This study was performed to compare the effects of Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation-II (APACHE-II) and new checklist of health status assessment on the quality of physician-nurse relationship. Methods and Materials: In this cross-sectional descriptive-analytical study, 100 nurses from intensive care unit (ICU) of Amin Hospital, Isfahan, Iran, participated. Jefferson Scale of Attitudes toward Physician-Nurse Collaboration was used for collecting data. Finally, data were analyzed using paired t-test and Wilcoxon test through SPSS software. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Findings: The mean score of physicians-nurses relationship in new checklist of health status assessment group was significantly higher than that of APACHE-II group (P < 0.001). But overall, the attitudes toward physician-nurse collaboration were positive in both scoring systems. Conclusions: According to the results, attitudes of the nurses toward physician-nurse relationship in new checklist of health status assessment group was significantly more positive than APACHE-II group, so using new checklist of health status assessment instead of APACHE-II system is recommended in the ICUs of the country's hospitals.
