Disruption occurs when the expectations of individuals and the services provided are so vastly different that linear change is no longer likely.1 For example, disruption occurred in naval warfare when reliance on battleships was replaced by aircraft carriers,2 and in medicine when anesthesia and vaccines were introduced.
