This visionary reframing of health and healthcare uses a complexity
science approach to building healthcare systems that are
accessible, effective, and prepared for change and challenges. Its
holistic map for understanding the human organism emphasizes the
interconnectedness of the individual's physical, psychological,
cognitive, and sociocultural functioning. Applications of this
approach are described in primary, specialist, and emergency care
and at the organizational and policy levels, from translating
findings to practice, to problem solving and evaluation. In this
model, the differences between disease and illness and treating
illness and restoring health are not mere wordplay, but instead are
robust concepts reflecting real-world issues and their solutions.
Based on the Proceedings of the 1st International Conference of
Systems and Complexity for Healthcare, topics covered include: *
Coping with complexity and uncertainty: insights from studying
epidemiology in family medicine * Anticipation in complex systems:
potential implications for improving safety and quality in
healthcare * Monitoring variability and complexity at the bedside *
Viewing mental health through the lens of complexity science *
Ethical complexities in systems healthcare: what care and for whom?
* The value of systems and complexity thinking to enable change in
adaptive healthcare organizations supported by informatics * If the
facts don't fit the theory, change the theory: implications for
health system reform The Value of Systems and Complexity Sciences
for Healthcare will interest and inspire health and disease
researchers, health professionals, health care planners, health
system financiers, health system administrators, health services
administrators, health professional educators, and, last but not
least, current and future patients.
