Abstract:
Objective To define the conceptual connotation and characteristics of medical surges,and to construct a theoretical analysis framework for responding to medical surges based on complex networks.Methods By systematically reviewing relevant domestic and international research and practices,and from the perspective of complex networks and interdisciplinary integration,it analyzed the concept connotation,characteristics and comprehensive analytical framework of medical surges.Results The concept and connotation of medical surges were defined,and six major characteristics were summarized:sudden and surging congestion,overload spillover,stage recurrence,complex network and multi-dimensional collaboration,dynamic nonlinear multi-path evolution,and cascading amplification.A theoretical analysis framework was developed,encompassing four dimensions("risk and vulnerability coupling-complex surge scenario characterization-complex risk network chain drive-network dynamic collaboration capacity assessment and construction"),multiple hierarchical levels("macro-level healthcare system-meso-level hospital department functional systems-micro-level resource elements system"),and multiple scales("Wuli-Shili-Renli").Conclusion The proposed conceptual connotation,characteristics,and multi-dimensional,multi-level,and multi-scale theoretical analysis framework provide new perspectives and theoretical support for advancing the theoretical system of medical surges,guiding healthcare institutions to respond scientifically to surge impacts,and enhancing system resilience and network dynamic collaboration capacity.
