The validity of this scale was confirmed based on the opinions of experts, and its reliability was approved via inter-rater reliability. A total of 24 cases were observed and the obtained data were recorded. The recorded data were analyzed by SPSS.19 software using one-sample t-test. P<0.05 was considered significant for all tests. Results: As for the structure, the time of administration (100%), management of sessions (50%), venue, frequency, duration and stages of patient introduction (>50%), equipment, participants and patients' selection (<50%) were in compliance with the standards. With regard to the content, over 50% of effective interaction, atmosphere of meetings, fitness of the room with the number of participants, evidence and documentation and less than 50% of discussion content, holding evidence-based morning report, follow-up and evaluation were in line with the standards.
