Figure 1Modified Ishikawa diagram showing how multiple factors may contribute to the causes and effects of delay, structured using a Donabedian model of health system function. The horizontal division demonstrates how quantitative and qualitative approaches may explore different factors, while the grey shading indicates that although these factors can be delineated, they are components of a complex web of interdependent elements.
