Objective  To explore the application effect of interdisciplinary education in medical and health professional students.

Methods  In CNKI, WanFang, VIP, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases, controlled experiments with information about the application effect of interdisciplinary education in healthcare professions were searched, from inception to April 1, 2024. A Meta-analysis of the included articles was performed using RevMan 5.4.

Results  A total of 13 studies were included, with a total sample size of 1,425 individuals. Meta-analysis results showed that the interdisciplinary education pilot group had higher theoretical scores[SMD=0.60, 95%CI(0.39, 0.80), P<0.001], skill scores[SMD=1.99, 95%CI (1.72, 2.25), P<0.001], teamwork skills[SMD=0.57, 95%CI (0.41, 0.72), P<0.001], and  readiness for interdisciplinary cooperative learning[SMD=0.97, 95%CI (0.07, 1.88), P=0.03] were better than traditional teaching group, and the difference of teaching satisfaction of interdisciplinary education [MD=4.57, 95%CI (-0.35, 9.48), P=0.07] between two groups was not statistically significant.

Conclusion  The interdisciplinary education methods in medical specialties can improve medical students' academic performance, teamwork ability, and readiness for interdisciplinary cooperative learning. This method is worth applying in the medicine education.
