“…Research on systemic innovations takes place mainly in two different fields: A first group of studies primarily deals with systemic innovations from an organisational (or business) perspective, applying systems thinking to organisations and innovation management (Chesbrough & Teece, 1996;Hauerwaas & Weisenfeld, 2017;Jaspers, 2009;Kaivo-oja, 2011;Mäkimattila, 2014;Maula, Keil, & Salmenkaita, 2006;Mortati, 2013;Taylor & Levitt, 2004).…”

“…Health care systems are complex adaptive systems (CAS) with many agents (patients, providers, insurances, government agencies, researchers) engaged in prevention, diagnosis, and treatment (Krubiner & Hyder, 2014;Rouse, 2008); Changing such a system requires a systemic approach, that is, any potential innovation needs to be analysed with respect to related requirements, impacts, and obstacles: Related innovations (RI) mean that in order to succeed, one focal innovation affects and is affected by (or even requires the invention of) a number of other innovations (Hauerwaas & Weisenfeld, 2017). Influencing each other and the whole system, RI are systemic innovations that generate system change (e.g., Mulgan, 2013).…”

The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the potential of the systemic innovations approach for transforming transplantation systems. It explores potential leverage points for intervening in the LTx-system as well as possible paths of transformation. We present possible transition pathways giving the example of the German Lung transplantation system that teeters on the brink of collapse due to system failures and organ scarcity and illustrate systemic innovations as core mechanisms for systems change in health systems. Desk research and semi-structured experts interviews provided qualitative data for a deductive-inductive coding and a rigorous qualitative content analysis of the data. Depending on the systemic innovations chosen to achieve systems change, transplant systems follow different transformational paths: from a collapse to a leapfrogging towards a non-human transplantation system. Thus, global health areas like transplantation benefit from analysis on systemic innovations as these support researchers, public policy and regulators by developing transformative strategies in healthcare systems.
