Bibliography

This paper describes the application of system dynamics to health and social care in Europe.

Systems thinking and the simulation tool set of system dynamics are introduced together with an overview of current strategic health issues and responses in the UK and Europe. A case study is then presented to demonstrate how effective and apposite system dynamics studies can be. This is followed by a pan‐European review of applications of system dynamics in epidemiology and in health treatment and diagnosis in different sectors of health and social care, based on an extensive bibliography. Reference is also made to health workforce planning studies. Lastly, a review of future directions is described.

The knowledge base of this paper is located in published work by internal and external consultants and Universities, but it should also be said that there is far more work in system dynamics in health than is referred to in these sources. Many internal and external consultancies undertake studies which remain unpublished.

The description of the subject and the applications described are comprehensive, but the review is a personal interpretation of the current state of a fast‐moving field by the author and apologies are made in advance for any unintended omissions.

The case study in Sect. “A Case Study: Using System Dynamics to Influence Health and Social Care Policy Nationally in the UK – Delayed Hospital Discharges” is extracted from material published by Springer‐Verlag, US and published with their permission.
