Mind Map #10
Steps of System Analysis
- Identify the key influences or interventions on an outcome or the outcome of the disease.
- Indicate the relative strength of the impact of each influence or intervention.
- Identify how these influences or interventions interact or work together when more than one is present.
- Identify the dynamic changes that may occur in a system by identifying the feedback loops that occur in the system.
- Identify bottlenecks that greatly limit the effectiveness of the system.
- Identify leverage points that provide opportunities to improve outcomes greatly.
Bottleneck: a point at which events slow down, presenting obstacles to an intervention's success.
Ex. addiction to nicotine, narrowed coronary arteries, and delays in reaching care after a motor vehicle injury
Leverage Point: points in systems at which successful interventions produce better-than-expected outcomes.

Types of Thinking
Systems Thinking: examines multiple influences on the development of an outcome or outcomes and attempts to bring them together in a coherent whole.
Reductionist Thinking: looks at one factor or variable of time, reducing the problem to one potential “cause” and one potential “effect.”
Syndromes Vs. Syndemic
-
Syndemic → The occurrence together of two or more diseases that interact to magnify the occurrence and/or overall burden of disease.

Feedback loops do not always have to be reinforcing, and they can be both positive and negative
Dependencies: situations in which the outcome for one individual is affected by the outcomes in other individuals.
Complex system approaches can help us explicitly understand how lower- level processes scale up and interact with higher-level factors to generate the higher-scale macro patterns that we observe.
