Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

1.2.1 Wider perspective: Actors and interdependencies

Course subject(s) Module 1: Understanding the SYSTEM

Actors and Interdependencies

In the previous case video we introduced two patients, both with arthritis, but both in different stages in their treatment journey. The male patient is just before his diagnosis, the female patient is in the rehabilitation phase. Both patients are the central actors in their own journey. Other people and products play a vital role in their journey as well. Therefore, it is important to look at a patient journey with a wider perspective.

In the next pages, you can prove your knowledge in a short quiz (3 questions). You will also find some theory to reinforce the lecture.

Now let’s watch the video! In this video, Richard will introduce you to actors and their inter-dependencies in a patient journey.

Sorry but there don't seem to be any downloads..

Subtitles (captions) in other languages than provided can be viewed at YouTube. Select your language in the CC-button of YouTube.
