Methods Doctors and nurses who from ICU in Soochow were investigated by the Nurse-Physician Collaboration Scale (NPCS). Results The doctors′score of physician-nurse collaboration in the nutritional support of critically ill patients was 87.42 ±15.73, which was significantly higher than 80.97 ± 13.80 the nurses′(t=3.279, P= 0.001).In addition, under the item 1, 3, 5 in the dimension one as well as the total items in the dimensions two and three, the doctors′score was similarly higher than the nurses, and the differences are also statistically significant (Z=-3.894--1.964, all P<0.01 or 0.05). Technical titles, educational level and age was significantly related to the cooperative level between doctors and nurses respectively (χ2=11.037, P=0.012;F=3.488, P=0.037; F=3.499, P=0.016). Conclusions Doctors have higher levels of perceived collaboration than nurses in the nutritional support of critically ill patients, while both require further improvement.
