| Tiivistelmä: | Operational research models are well established as an effective tool for tackling a vast range of health care problems. In this paper the authors describe a discrete event simulation model of attendance for screening for diabetic retinopathy, a sight-threatening complication of diabetes. This model takes into account the physical states, emotions, cognitions and social status of the persons involved. The model also uses some ideas from the discipline of health psychology. |
