Complexity perspectives on clinical decision making in an intensive care unit.
Journal of Evaluation in Clinical Practice 2018 Februrary
RATIONALE, AIMS, AND OBJECTIVES: How to clarify the implications of complexity thinking for decision making in the intensive care unit (ICU)?
METHOD: Retrospective qualitative empirical research. Practitioners in an ICU were interviewed on how their decisions were made regarding a particular patient in a difficult, clinical situation. Transcriptions of these interviews were coded and retrieved in Maxqda, a software program. Assisted by complexity thinking, researchers focused on the decision-making process and the shift from analytic approaches to complex approaches.
RESULTS: Originally, practitioners took their decisions with negligible transdisciplinary interactivity, drawing on analytical knowledge. Later on, they shifted to transdisciplinary practices, paying attention to more participation in their decision-making processes within their complex environment.
CONCLUSIONS: Complexity thinking demonstrates that this is a better model towards understanding transdisciplinary decision making then most analytical methodologies.
