This realist review aims to unravel the relationships between contextual (C) factors, mechanisms (M), and outcomes (O) related to this interprofessional collaboration process.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec002\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      This realist review employed an iterative, theory-driven approach which led to the development of a refined program theory explaining how, for whom, and under which conditions interprofessional collaboration between PCTs and hospital ward staff contributes to quality of care. On April 21\n                      <jats:sup>st<\/jats:sup>\n                      , 2023, five electronic databases were searched for relevant articles published between January 2013 and April 2023. Data screening and extraction was carried out by two independent researchers. Data-analysis was a two-phase iterative process to develop an overarching CMO-model and ground this model within third-generation cultural-historical activity theory (CHAT).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec003\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We identified 10 recurrent mechanisms contributing to the process of interprofessional collaboration and several moderating factors influencing ward staff\u2019s willingness to initiate PCT involvement. Contextual factors at both ward staff and PCT levels triggered mechanisms related to awareness, feelings, perspectives, and expectations, shaping outcomes for ward staff, PCTs, patients, and relatives. Notable outcomes included improved patient understanding of their disease, relatives\u2019 increased satisfaction with care, greater PCT involvement, and a sense of relief among ward staff. The CHAT-analysis revealed the interplay between expectations, roles, and beliefs in shaping interprofessional collaboration. Dual effects of mediating artifacts, such as palliative care training and time constraints, were observed depending on context, further illustrating the complexity of collaborative practices. Ultimately, this realist review emphasized the need for hospital decision-makers to acknowledge the multidimensional aspects of palliative care and foster a sense of partnership between PCTs and ward staff to optimize IPC. A refined program theory was developed to guide future interventions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec004\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This realist review highlights the complexity of interprofessional collaboration between PCTs and ward staff, emphasizing the importance of tailored approaches that address specific contextual needs, expectations, and norms.
