22. Preface The 2015–2017 edition of the classic NANDA International, Inc. text, Nursing Diagnoses: Definitions & Classification, provides more clinically applicable diagnoses as a result of the Diagnostic Development Committee’s attentiveness to the potential translations of the diagnos- tic label, definition, defining characteristics, related factors, and risk factors. In the past, a number of nurses asked about the applicability of our work in their own countries and jurisdiction. Changes within the 2015–2017 edition have been implemented to incorporate the diversity and practice differences across the world. The latest edition is not only considered a language, but, truthfully, it is a body of nursing knowledge. These new and revised diagnoses are based on the state of evidence around the world, and they are submitted by nurses, reviewed and revised by nurses, and approved by expert nurse diagnosticians, researchers, and educators. The latest edition enhances the cultural applicability with 25 new nursing diagnoses and 13 revised diagnoses. Additionally, the text includes changes to the official NANDA-I nursing diagnosis category definitions (problem-focused, risk, health promo- tion), and the overall nursing diagnosis definition. NANDA International, Inc. (NANDA-I) is a not-for-profit member- ship organization. This means that with the exception of our business management and administration functions, all of our work is accom- plished by volunteers. Some of the world’s most talented nurse scientists and scholars are or have been NANDA-I volunteers. Contrary to most business entities, there is not an office somewhere with nurse researchers working on nursing diagnoses. The volunteers are people like you and me who give their time and expertise to NANDA-I, because of their strongly held beliefs about the importance of patient care and the contributions that nursing and nurses can and do make to society. With the publication of each new edition of our work, more transla- tions are added. I am delighted that the work is published in numer- ous languages for this international membership organization. Our relationship with our publishing partner, Wiley Blackwell, has evolved over the past five years. One of the arrangements is to ensure that each and every translation is accurate and exact. Together with our publishers, we now have a robust quality assurance mechanism in place to ensure the accuracy of each translation. The source document for each translation is always this, the American English version. We are deeply committed to ensuring the integrity of our work worldwide xxii Preface
23. Preface xxiii and invite you to support us in this quest in order to improve patient safety and the consistency of high-quality evidence-based care. As a not- for-profit organization, we obviously need an income to run the organiza- tion, facilitate meetings of our committees and Board of Directors, sponsor our website and knowledge base, and support educational offerings and conferences throughout the world, and this comes from the licenses we sell for the publishing and use of our work in electronic form. For the first time this year, we will be offering an electronic application of the NANDA-I terminology, complete with an assessment feature and decision support for some of the most commonly used diagnoses. This type of work, too, requires funding for development and testing. As an international organization, we truly value cultural diversity and practice differences. However, as the provider of the world’s most success- ful standardized nursing diagnostic language and knowledge, we have a duty to provide you with exactly that: standardized nursing diagnostic knowledge. We do not support changing diagnoses at the request of trans- lators or clinical specialists in just one edition in a particular language, when diagnosis lacks applicability in that particular culture. This is because we are deeply committed to realizing the clinical benefits of nursing diag- nostic knowledge content for diverse cultures and specialties. We do not believe that we should be supporting the censorship of clinical informa- tion in this text. As a registered nurse you are accountable for appropriate diagnosis, and the use of appropriate terms, within your practice. Clearly, it would be inappropriate for all of us to use each and every one of the diagnoses in this edition, because none of us could claim competence in every sphere of nursing practice simultaneously. Clinically safe nurses are reflective practitioners; a central component to safe practice is to thor- oughly understand one’s own clinical competence. It is highly likely that there are numerous diagnoses in this edition that you will never use in your own practice; others you may use daily. This also links to the issue of cultural applicability because if, when studying this edition, you find a diagnosis that is not applicable to your practice or culture, it is within your gift simply not to use it. However, based on my own varied clinical experi- ences as a registered nurse, I would implore you to not ignore completely those diagnoses that might at first seem culturally awkward. We live in a transcultural and highly mobile society, and exploring those diagnoses that might initially seem unusual can challenge your thinking and open up new possibilities and understanding. This is all part of being a reflective and life-long learning practitioner. Each diagnosis has been the product of one or more of our NANDA-I volunteers or NANDA-I users, and most have a defined evidence base. Each and every new and revised diagnosis will have been refined and debated by our DDC members before finally being submitted to NANDA-I members for a vote of approval. Only if our members vote positively for the inclusion of a new or refined diagnosis does the work
24. xxiv Preface “make it” into the published edition. However, if you feel that a particular diagnosis is incorrect and requires revision, we welcome your views. You should contact the chair of the DDC through our web- site. Please provide as much evidence as possible to support your views. By working in this way, rather than changing just one translation or edition, we can ensure that our nursing diagnostic knowledge contin- ues to have integrity and consistency, and that all benefit from the wisdom and work of individual scholars. We welcome you to submit new diagnoses, as well as revisions to current diagnoses, by using the submission guidelines found on our website. One of the key membership developments in the past few years has been educational content published by Artmed/Panamericana Editora Ltda. (Porto Alegre, Brazil), which compiles educational modules, published in Portuguese, known as PRONANDA. A similar offering will soon be provided in Spanish. Other developments are the NANDA-I database for researchers and others needing to design electronic content. The Educational and Research Committee is preparing new educational materials to help with the educational process. The aim of this new edition of our book is to support those learning to diagnose, and to enable decision-makers to have access to information about diagnoses that describe the problems, risks, and health promotion needs of persons, families, groups, and communi- ties. I personally was very interested in membership of NANDA-I because the body of nursing knowledge content is essential in the design of clinical decision support logic for electronic health record systems and for data analysis. I want to commend the work of all NANDA-I volunteers, committee members, chairpersons, and members of the Board of Directors for their time, commitment and enthusiasm, and ongoing support. I want to thank our staff, led by our CEO/Executive Director, Dr. T. Heather Herdman, for its efforts and support. I appreciate the publishing partnership with Wiley-Blackwell as well as our translation and global publishing partners, which support the dissemination of knowledge content and the database developed by NANDA-I. My special thanks to the members of the Diagnosis Development Committee for their outstanding and timely efforts to review and edit the diagnoses that are the core portion of this book, and especially for the leadership of the DDC by our Chair since 2010, Dr. Shigemi Kamitsuru. This wonderful committee, with representation from North and Latin America, Europe, and Asia, is the true “power house” of the NANDA-I knowledge content, and I am deeply impressed and pleased by the aston- ishingly comprehensive work of these volunteers over the years. Finally, when I first learned about and learned to use nursing diagnoses 30 years ago, I never imagined that I would one day be the President of NANDA-I, setting the agenda for this incredible body of
25. Preface xxv nursing knowledge. I welcomed the opportunity to volunteer for NANDA-I, because I found value in supporting the advancement of meaningful and useful knowledge to support nurses and students of nursing. All registered nurses and advanced practice nurses are making clinical decisions within practice, education, administration of critical thinking processes, and informatics clinical decision support system designs. For these reasons, NANDA International, Inc. has had, and continues to have, a role in improving the quality of evidence-based care and the safety of patient care, and remains the core base of knowledge for nursing professionals.

26. Introduction This book is divided into four parts: ■ Part 1 provides the introduction to the NANDA International, Inc. (NANDA-I) Taxonomy of Nursing Diagnoses. Taxonomy II organizes the diagnoses into domains and classes. Information is provided on diagnoses that are new to, or were removed from, the taxonomy during the past review cycle. ■ Part 2 provides chapters on the basics of nursing diagnosis, assessment, and clinical judgment. These chapters are primarily written for students, clinicians, and educators. The accompanying website includes educational materials designed to support students and faculty in understanding and teaching this material. Changes to the chapters were made based on incredibly helpful feedback received from readers around the world, and questions that we receive on a daily basis at NANDA International, Inc. ■ Part 3 provides the core contents of the NANDA International Nursing Diagnoses: Definitions & Classification book: the 235 diagnoses them- selves, including definitions, defining characteristics, risk factors, and related factors, as appropriate. The diagnoses are categorized using Taxonomy II, and ordered by Domain first, then Class, and then alphabetically within each class (in the English language) by the focus of each diagnosis. We recommend that all translations maintain this order, (Domain, class, alphabetic order in their own language), to facilitate ease of discussion between inter-language groups. ■ Part 4 includes information that relates specifically to NANDA International. Information on processes and procedures related to review of NANDA-I diagnoses, the submission process, and level of evidence criteria are provided. A glossary of terms is given. Finally, information specific to the organization and the benefits of member- ship are outlined. How to Use This Book As noted above, the nursing diagnoses are listed by Domain first, then by Class, and then alphabetically within each class (in the English language) by the focus of each diagnosis. For example, Impaired standing is listed under Domain 4 (Activity / Rest), Class 2 (Activity / Exercise): xxvi Introduction
27. Introduction xxvii Domain 4: Activity / Rest Class 2: Activity / Exercise Impaired standing (00238) It is our hope that the organization of NANDA-I Nursing Diagnoses: Definitions & Classification, 2015–2017 will make it efficient and effective to use. We welcome your feedback. If you have suggestions, please send them by email to: execdir@nanda.org.

30. Introduction T. Heather Herdman, RN, PhD, FNI In this section, introductory information on the new edition of the NANDA International Taxonomy, 2015–2017 is presented. This includes an overview of major changes to this edition: new and revised diagnoses, changes to slotting within the taxonomy, changes to diagnostic labels, and diagnoses that were removed or retired. Those individuals and groups who submitted new or revised diagnoses for approval are identified. A historical perspective on submitters to the complete NANDA-I terminology, which was devel- oped by Betty Ackley for the previous edition of this book, has been updated to include this information, and is now available on our web- site, at www.nanda.org. A description of editorial changes is also provided; readers will note that nearly every diagnosis has some changes as we have worked to increase the standardization of the terms used within our diagnostic indicators (defining characteristics, related factors, risk factors). I would like to offer a particularly significant note of appreciation to Dr. Susan Gallagher-Lepak, of the University of Wisconsin – Green Bay College of Professional Studies, who worked with me over a period of several months to standardize these terms. Additional thanks go to my co-editor, Dr. Shigemi Kamitsuru, who further reviewed and revised our work, which then came full circle back to us for consensus. This process has been a daunting one, with more than 5,600 individual terms requiring review! However, the standardization of these terms has now enabled the coding of all of the diagnostic indicator terms, facilitating their use as assessment data within electronic health records, leading to the development within those records of critical clinical decision support tools for professional nurses. These codes are now available on the NANDA-I website. NANDA International, Inc. Nursing Diagnoses: Definitions & Classification 2015–2017, Tenth Edition. Edited by T.

Published 2014 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Companion website: www.wiley.com/go/nursingdiagnoses What’s New in the 2015–2017 Edition ofDiagnoses and Classification? Changes have been made in this edition based on feedback from users, to address the needs of both students and clinicians, as well as to provide additional support to educators. All of the chapters are new for this edition, with the exception of the chapter NANDA-I Taxonomy: Specifications and Definitions, which provides a revision of that found in the previous edition. There are corresponding web-based presentations available for teachers and students that augment the information found within the chapters; icons appear in chapters that have these accompanying support tools. A new chapter, focusing on Frequently Asked Questions, is included. These questions represent the most common questions we receive through the NANDA-I website, and when we present at conferences around the globe. Acknowledgments It goes without saying that the dedication of several individuals to the work of NANDA International, Inc. (NANDA-I) is evident in their donation of time and effort to the improvement of the NANDA-I terminology and taxonomy. This text represents the culmination of the tireless volunteer work of a group of very dedicated, extremely talented individuals who have developed, revised, and studied nursing diagnoses for more than 40 years. Additionally, we would like to take the opportunity to acknowledge and personally thank the following individuals for their contributions to this particular edition of the NANDA-I text.

T. Heather Herdman, PhD, RN, FNI Shigemi Kamitsuru, PhD, RN, FNI Editors NANDA International, Inc. Changes to Health Promotion and Risk Diagnoses The overall definitions for nursing diagnoses were changed during this cycle. These changes had impacts on the way in which current risk and health promotion diagnoses should be defined, so you will note changes to every definition of these diagnoses. These changes were presented to the NANDA-I membership, and approved via online voting. The risk diagnoses were changed to eliminate “risk” from the definition, which has now been replaced by the use of the word “vulnerable.” The health promotion diagnoses were changed to ensure that the definitions reflected that these diagnoses are appropriate for use at any stage in the health–illness continuum, and that a state of balance or health is not required. Similarly, defining characteristics of these diagnoses needed to change, as in many cases they represented healthy, stable states. All of the defining characteristics now begin with the phrase “Expresses the desire to enhance,” because health promotion requires the willingness of the patient to improve upon his current status, whatever that might be. New Nursing Diagnoses, 2015–2017 A significant body of work representing new and revised nursing diagnoses was submitted to the NANDA-I Diagnosis Development Committee, with a substantial portion of that work being presented to
33. 6 Nursing Diagnoses 2015–2017 the NANDA-I membership for consideration in this review cycle. NANDA-I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate those submitters who successfully met the level of evidence criteria with their submissions and/or revisions. Twenty-five new diagnoses were approved by the Diagnosis Development Committee, the NANDA-I Board of Directors, and the NANDA-I membership (Table I.1).

Changes to Slotting of Current Diagnoses within the NANDA-I Taxonomy II, 2015–2017 A review of the current taxonomic structure, and slotting of diagnoses within that structure, led to some changes in the way some diagnoses are now classified within the NANDA-I taxonomy. Five nursing diag- noses were reslotted within the NANDA-I taxonomy; these are noted in Table I.3 with their previous and new places in the taxonomy noted. Revisions to Nursing Diagnosis Labels within the NANDA-I Taxonomy II, 2015–2017 Changes were made in five diagnosis labels. These changes, and their rationale, are shown in Table I.4. Nursing Diagnoses Removed from the NANDA-I Taxonomy II, 2015–2017 Seven nursing diagnoses were removed from the taxonomy, either because they were slotted for removal if they were not updated to bring them to a level of evidence of 2.1, due to a change in the classification Table I.3 Slotting Changes to NANDA-I Nursing Diagnoses, 2015–2017 Nursing diagnosis Previous slotting New slotting Domain Class Domain Class Noncompliance Life Principles Value/Belief/ Action Congruence Health Promotion Health Management Ineffective breastfeeding1 Role Relationship Caregiving Roles Nutrition Ingestion Interrupted breastfeeding1 Role Relationship Caregiving Roles Nutrition Ingestion Readiness for enhanced breastfeeding1 Role Relationship Caregiving Roles Nutrition Ingestion Readiness for enhanced hope Life Principles Values Self- Perception Self- Concept Risk for loneliness Self- Perception Self- Concept Comfort Social Comfort 1 Reslotting due to diagnosis revision, including definition change.

Table I.5 provides information on each of the diagnoses that were removed from the taxonomy. Standardization of Diagnostic Indicator Terms For the past two cycles of this book, work has been slowly underway to decrease variation in the terms used for defining characteristics, related factors, and risk factors. This work was undertaken in earnest during this cycle of the book, with several months being dedicated for the review, revision, and standardization of terms being used. This was no easy task, and it involved many hours of review, literature searches, discussion, and consultation with clinical experts in different fields. The process we used included individual review of assigned domains, followed by a second reviewer independently reviewing the current Table I.4 Revisions to Nursing Diagnosis Labels of NANDA-I Nursing Diagnoses, 2015–2017 Previous diagnostic label New diagnostic label Rationale Ineffective self-health management Ineffective health management There is no need to include the “self” in the diagnostic label, as the focus of the diagnosis is assumed to be the individual unless otherwise stated. Readiness for enhanced self-health management Readiness for enhanced health management There is no need to include the “self” in the diagnostic label, as the focus of the diagnosis is assumed to be the individual unless otherwise stated. Ineffective family therapeutic regimen management Ineffective family health management Definition is consistent with the individual health management diagnoses, therefore the diagnostic label should reflect the same diagnostic focus. Impaired individual resilience Impaired resilience There is no need to include “individual” in the diagnostic label, as the focus of the diagnosis is assumed to be the individual unless otherwise stated. Risk for compromised resilience Risk for impaired resilience The problem-focused diagnosis carries the diagnostic label, Impaired resilience, and the definition of the risk diagnosis is consistent with that diagnosis.

41. 14 Nursing Diagnoses 2015–2017 and newly recommended terms. The two reviewers then met together, either in person or via web-based video conferencing, and reviewed each and every line a third time, together. Once consensus was reached, the third reviewer then took the current terms and recommended terms, and independently reviewed these. Any discrepancies were discussed until consensus was reached. After the entire process was completed for every diagnosis, including new and revised diagnoses, a process of filtering for similar terms was begun. For example, every term with the stem “pulmo-” was searched, to ensure that consistency was maintained. Common phrases were also used to filter, such as verbalizes, reports, states; lack of; insufficient; inadequate; excess, etc. This process continued until the team was unable to find additional terms that had not previously been reviewed. That said, we know the work is not done, it is not perfect, and there may be disagreements with some of the changes that were made. We can tell you that there are more than 5,600 diagnostic indicators within the terminology, and we believe that we have made a good first effort at standardization of the terms. The benefits of this are many, but three are perhaps the most notable: 1. Translations should be improved. There have been multiple questions over the last two editions that were difficult to answer. Some examples include: (a) When you say lack in English, does that mean absence of or insuf- ficient? The answer is often “Both!” Although the duality of this word is well accepted in English, the lack of clarity does not support the clinician in any language, and it makes it very dif- ficult to translate into languages in which a different word would be used depending on the intended meaning. (b) Is there a reason why some defining characteristics are noted in the singular and yet in another diagnosis the same characteristic is noted in the plural (e.g., absence of significant other(s), absence of significant other, absence of significant others)? (c) There are many terms that are similar, or that are examples of other terms used in the terminology. For example, what is the difference between: abnormal skin color (e.g., pale, dusky), color changes, cyanosis, pale, skin color changes, slight cyanosis? Are the differences significant? Could these be combined into one term? Some of the translations are almost the same (e.g., abnormal skin color, color changes, skin color changes) can we use the same term or must we translate exactly as in the English? Decreasing the variation in these terms should now facilitate trans- lation, as one term/phrase will be used throughout the terminology for similar diagnostic indicators.
42. Changes to the NANDA International Terminology 15 2. Clarity for clinicians should be improved. It is confusing to students and practicing nurses alike when they see similar but slightly different terms in different diagnoses. Are they the same? Is there some subtle difference they don’t understand? Why can’t NANDA-I be more clear? And what about all of those “e.g.s” in the terminology? Are they there to teach, to clarify, to list every potential example? There seems to be a mixture of all of these appearing within the terminology. You will notice that many of the “e.g.s” have been removed, unless it was felt that they were truly needed to clarify intent. “Teaching tips” that were present in some parentheses are gone, too – the terminology is not the place for these. And we have done our best to condense terms and standardize them, whenever possible. 3. This work has enabled the coding of the diagnostic indicators, which will facilitate their use for populating assessment databases within electronic health records, and increase the availability of decision support tools regarding accuracy in diagnosis and linking diagnosis to appropriate treatment plans. Although we did not include the phrase codes within this edition of the taxonomy, a list of all diagnostic indicators, and their codes, is available at the NANDA-I website. It is strongly recommended that these codes be used in all publications to ensure accuracy in translation. Other Changes Made in the 2015–2017 Edition The list of diagnostic indicators has been shortened in a couple of other ways. First, because defining characteristics are identified as those things that can be observed, which includes what can be seen and heard, we have removed terms such as “observed” and “verbalizes,” so that it is no longer necessary to have two terms that relate to the same data. For example, previously there would have been two separate defining characteristics relate to pain, reports pain and observed evidence of pain; in this edition you will simply see pain, which can either be observed or reported. Secondly, some of the subcategories of terms have been deleted (e.g., objective/subjective) because they are no longer necessary. Other deletions include lists of pharmaceutical agents, categorized under the subcategory of pharmaceutical agents.

The accompanying website features presentation materials to supplement the information provided in these chapters. Chapter 1 Nursing Diagnosis Basics Susan Gallagher-Lepak, RN, PhD This chapter provides a brief review of nursing diagnosis terms and the process of diagnosing. It serves as a basic introduction to nursing diagnosis: what it is, its role within the nursing process, an introduction to the link between assessment and diagnosis, and usage of nursing diagnosis. Chapter 2 From Assessment to Diagnosis T. Heather Herdman, RN, PhD, FNI and Shigemi Kamitsuru, RN, PhD, FNI This chapter, relates to the importance of nursing assessment for accurate diagnosis within nursing practice. Chapter 3 An Introduction to the NANDA-I Taxonomy T. Heather Herdman, RN, PhD, FNI Written primarily for students and nurses in practice, this chapter explains the purpose of a taxonomy, and how to use the taxonomy within practice and education. Table 3.1 presents the 235 NANDA-I nursing diagnoses that are found within the NANDA-I Taxonomy II, and their placement within its 13 domains and 47 classes. Table 3.2 provides the nursing diagnoses as they are placed within the proposed Taxonomy III. Chapter 4 NANDA-I Taxonomy II: Specifications and Definitions T.

Published 2014 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Companion website: www.wiley.com/go/nursingdiagnoses Nursing Diagnosis Basics Susan Gallagher-Lepak, RN, PhD Chapter 1 Healthcare is delivered by various types of healthcare professionals, including nurses, physicians, and physical therapists, to name just a few. This is true in hospitals as well as other settings across the con- tinuum of care (e.g., clinics, home care, long-term care, churches, pris- ons). Each healthcare discipline brings its unique body of knowledge to the care of the client. In fact, a unique body of knowledge is often cited as a defining characteristic of a profession. Collaboration, and at times overlap, occurs between professionals in providing care (Figure 1.1). For example, a physician in a hospital set- ting may write an order for the client to walk twice per day. Physical therapy focuses on core muscles and movements necessary for walk- ing. Nursing has a holistic view of the patient, including balance and muscle strength related to walking, as well as confidence and motiva- tion. Social work may have involvement with insurance coverage for necessary equipment. Each health profession has a way to describe “what” the profession knows and “how” it acts on what it knows. This chapter is primarily focused on the “what.” A profession may have a common language that is used to describe and code its knowledge. Physicians treat dis- ease and use the International Classification of Disease taxonomy, ICD-10, to represent and code the medical problems they treat. Psychologists, psychiatrists, and other mental health professionals treat mental health disorders and use the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, DSM-V. Nurses treat human responses to health problems and/or life processes and use the NANDA International, Inc. (NANDA-I) nursing diagnosis taxonomy. The nursing diagnosis taxonomy, and the process of diagnosing using this taxonomy, will be further described.
47. 22 Nursing Diagnoses 2015–2017 The NANDA-I taxonomy provides a way to classify and categorize areas of concern to nursing (i.e., foci of the diagnoses). It contains 235 nursing diagnoses grouped into 13 domains and 47 classes. A domain is a “sphere of knowledge; examples of domains in the NANDA-I taxonomy include: Nutrition, Elimination/Exchange, Activity/Rest, or Coping/Stress Tolerance (Merriam-Webster, 2009). Domains are divided into classes (groupings that share common attributes). Nurses deal with responses to health conditions/life responses among individuals, families, groups, and communities. Such responses are the central concern of nursing care and fill the circle ascribed to nursing in Figure 1.1. A nursing diagnosis can be problem-focused, or a state of health promotion or potential risk (Herdman, 2012): ■ Problem-focused diagnosis – a clinical judgment concerning an undesirable human response to a health condition/life process that exists in an individual, family, group, or community ■ Risk diagnosis – a clinical judgment concerning the vulnerability of an individual, family, group or community for developing an undesirable human response to health conditions/life processes ■ Health promotion diagnosis – a clinical judgment concerning motivation and desire to increase well-being and to actualize human health potential. These responses are expressed by a readiness to enhance specific health behaviors, and can be used in any heath state. Health promotion responses may exist in an individual, family, group, or community Client/Family Nurse Physician Physical therapist Social worker Figure 1.1 Example of a Collaborative Healthcare Team
48. Nursing Diagnosis 23 Although limited in number in the NANDA-I taxonomy, a syndrome can be present. A syndrome is a clinical judgment concerning a specific cluster of nursing diagnoses that occur together, and are best addressed together and through similar interventions. An example of a syndrome is chronic pain syndrome (00255). Chronic pain is recurrent or persistent pain that has lasted at least three months and that significantly affects daily functioning or well-being. This syndrome is differentiated from chronic pain in that additionally the chronic pain has a significant impact on other human responses and thus includes other diagnoses, such as disturbed sleep pattern (00198), social isolation (00053), fatigue (00093), or impaired physical mobility (00085). How Does a Nurse (or Nursing Student) Diagnose? The nursing process includes assessment, nursing diagnosis, planning, outcome setting, intervention, and evaluation (Figure 1.2). Nurses use assessment and clinical judgment to formulate hypotheses, or expla- nations, about presenting actual or potential problems, risks, and/or Theory/ nursing science/ underlying nursing concepts Assessment/ Patient history PLANNING s interventions Implementation Continual re-evaluation PATIENT/FAMILY/ GROUP/COMMUNITY Figure 1.2 The Modified Nursing Process From T.H.

49. 24 Nursing Diagnoses 2015–2017 health promotion opportunities. All of these steps require knowledge of underlying concepts of nursing science before patterns can be identi- fied in clinical data or accurate diagnoses can be made. Understanding Nursing Concepts Knowledge of key concepts, or nursing diagnostic foci, is necessary before beginning an assessment. Examples of critical concepts impor- tant to nursing practice include breathing, elimination, thermoregula- tion, physical comfort, self-care, and skin integrity. Understanding such concepts allows the nurse to identify patterns in the data and diagnose accurately. Key areas to understand with the concept of pain, for example, include manifestations of pain, theories of pain, popula- tions at risk, related pathophysiological concepts (e.g., fatigue, depres- sion), and management of pain. Full understanding of key concepts is needed as well to differentiate diagnoses. For example, in order to understand hypothermia or hyperthermia, a nurse must first under- stand the core concepts of thermal stability and thermoregulation. In looking at problems that can occur with thermoregulation, the nurse will be faced with the diagnoses of hypothermia (00006) (or risk for), hyperther- mia (00007) (or risk for), but also risk for imbalanced body temperature (00005) and ineffective thermoregulation (00008). The nurse may collect a significant amount of data, but without a sufficient understanding of the core concepts of thermal stability and thermoregulation, the data needed for accurate diagnosis may have been omitted and patterns in the assessment data go unrecognized. Assessment Assessment involves the collection of subjective and objective informa- tion (e.g., vital signs, patient/family interview, physical exam) and review of historical information in the patient chart. Nurses also collect information on strengths (to identify health promotion opportunities) and risks (areas that nurses can prevent or potential problems they can postpone). Assessments can be based on a particular nursing theory such as one developed by Sister Callista Roy, Wanda Horta, or Dorothea Orem, or on a standardized assessment framework such as Marjory Gordon’s Functional Health Patterns. These frameworks provide a way of categorizing large amounts of data into a manageable number of related patterns or categories of data. The foundation of nursing diagnosis is clinical reasoning. Clinical reasoning is required to distinguish normal from abnormal data, clus- ter related data, recognize missing data, identify inconsistencies in
50. Nursing Diagnosis 25 data, and make inferences (Alfaro-Lefebre, 2004). Clinical judgment is “an interpretation or conclusion about a patient’s needs, concerns, or health problems, and/or the decision to take action (or not)” (Tanner, 2006, p. 204). Key issues, or foci, may be evident early in the assessment (e.g., altered skin integrity, loneliness) and allow the nurse to begin the diagnostic process. For example, a patient may report pain and/or show agitation while holding a body part. The nurse will recognize the client’s discomfort based on client report and/or pain behaviors. Expert nurses can quickly identify clusters of clinical cues from assessment data and seamlessly progress to nursing diagnoses. Novice nurses take a more sequential process in determining appro- priate nursing diagnoses. Nursing Diagnosis A nursing diagnosis is a clinical judgment concerning a human response to health conditions/life processes, or vulnerability for that response, by an individual, family, group, or community. A nursing diagnosis typically contains two parts: 1) descriptor or modifier, and 2) focus of the diagnosis, or the key concept of the diagnosis (Table 1.1). There are some exceptions in which a nursing diagnosis is only one word such as fatigue (00093), constipation (00011), and anxiety (00146). In these diagnoses, the modifier and focus are inherent in the one term. Nurses diagnose health problems, risk states, and readiness for health promotion. Problem-focused diagnoses should not be viewed as more important than risk diagnoses. Sometimes a risk diagnosis can be the diagnosis with the highest priority for a patient. An example may be a patient who has the nursing diagnoses of chronic pain (00133), overweight (00233), risk for impaired skin integrity (00047), and risk for falls (00155), and who has been newly admitted to a skilled nursing facility. Although chronic pain and overweight are her problem-focused diagnoses, her risk for falls may be her number one priority diag- nosis, especially as she adjusts to a new environment. This may be especially true when related risk factors are identified in the assessment Table 1.1 Parts of a Nursing Diagnosis Label Modifier Diagnostic Focus Ineffective Airway Clearance Risk for Overweight Readiness for Enhanced Knowledge Impaired Memory Ineffective Coping
51. 26 Nursing Diagnoses 2015–2017 (e.g., poor vision, difficulty with gait, history of falls, and heightened anxiety with relocation). Each nursing diagnosis has a label, and a clear definition. It is impor- tant to state that merely having a label or a list of labels is insufficient. It is critical that nurses know the definitions of the diagnoses they most commonly use. In addition, they need to know the “diagnostic indicators” – the data that are used to diagnose and to differentiate one diagnosis from another. These diagnostic indicators include defining characteristics and related factors or risk factors (Table 1.2). Defining characteristics are observable cues/inferences that cluster as manifes- tations of a diagnosis (e.g., signs or symptoms). An assessment that identifies the presence of a number of defining characteristics lends sup- port to the accuracy of the nursing diagnosis. Related factors are an integral component of all problem-focused nursing diagnoses. Related factors are etiologies, circumstances, facts, or influences that have some type of relationship with the nursing diagnosis (e.g., cause, contribut- ing factor). A review of client history is often where related factors are identified. Whenever possible, nursing interventions should be aimed at these etiological factors in order to remove the underlying cause of the nursing diagnosis. Risk factors are influences that increase the vulnerability of an individual, family, group, or community to an unhealthy event (e.g., environmental, psychological, genetic). A nursing diagnosis does not need to contain all types of diagnostic indicators (i.e., defining characteristics, related factors, and/or risk fac- tors). Problem-focused nursing diagnoses contain defining characteris- tics and related factors. Health promotion diagnoses generally have only defining characteristics, although related factors may be used if they might improve the understanding of the diagnosis. It is only risk diagnoses that have risk factors. A common format used when learning nursing diagnosis includes _____ [nursing diagnosis] related to ______ [cause/related factors] as evidenced by ____________ [symptoms/defining characteristics]. For example, ineffective airway clearance related to excessive mucus and asthma Table 1.2 Key Terms at a Glance Term Brief Description Nursing Diagnosis Problem, strength, or risk identified for a client, family, group, or community Defining Characteristic Sign or symptom (objective or subjective cue) Related Factor Cause or contributing factor (etiological factor) Risk Factor Determinant (increase risk)
52. Nursing Diagnosis 27 as evidenced by decreased breath sounds bilaterally, crackles over left lobe and persistent, ineffective coughing. Depending on the electronic health record in a particular healthcare institution, the “related to” and “as evidenced by” components may not be included within the electronic system. This information, however, should be recognized in the assessment data col- lected and recorded in the patient chart in order to provide support for the nursing diagnosis. Without this data, it is impossible to verify diag- nostic accuracy, which puts the quality of nursing care into question. Planning/Intervention Once diagnoses are identified, prioritizing of selected nursing diagnoses must occur to determine care priorities. High-priority nursing diagno- ses need to be identified (i.e., urgent need, diagnoses with a high level of congruence with defining characteristics, related factors, or risk fac- tors) so that care can be directed to resolve these problems, or lessen the severity or risk of occurrence (in the case of risk diagnoses). Nursing diagnoses are used to identify intended outcomes of care and plan nursing-specific interventions sequentially. A nursing out- come refers to a measurable behavior or perception demonstrated by an individual, family, group, or community that is responsive to nurs- ing intervention (Center for Nursing Classification [CNC], n.d.). The Nursing Outcome Classification (NOC) is a system that can be used to select outcome measures related to nursing diagnosis. Nurses often, and incorrectly, move directly from nursing diagnosis to nursing inter- vention without consideration of desired outcomes. Instead, outcomes need to be identified before interventions are determined. The order of this process is similar to planning a road trip. Simply getting in a car and driving will get a person somewhere, but that may not be the place the person really wanted to go. Better is to first have a clear location (outcome) in mind, and then choose a route (intervention) to get to a desired location. An intervention is defined as “any treatment, based upon clinical judgment and knowledge, that a nurse performs to enhance patient/ client outcomes” (CNC, n.d.). The Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) is a comprehensive, evidence-based taxonomy of interventions that nurses perform across various care settings. Using nursing knowl- edge, nurses perform both independent and interdisciplinary inter- ventions. These interdisciplinary interventions overlap with care provided by other healthcare professionals (e.g., physicians, respira- tory and physical therapists). For example, blood glucose manage- ment is a concept important to nurses, risk for unstable blood glucose (00179) is a nursing diagnosis, and nurses implement nursing inter- ventions to treat this condition. Diabetes mellitus, in comparison, is a
53. 28 Nursing Diagnoses 2015–2017 medical diagnosis, yet nurses provide both independent and inter- disciplinary interventions to clients with diabetes who have various types of problems or risk states. Refer to the Kamitsuru’s Tripartite Model of Nursing Practice (Figure 5.2) on p. 121. Evaluation A nursing diagnosis “provides the basis for selection of nursing interven- tions to achieve outcomes for which nursing has accountability” (Herdman, 2012). The nursing process is often described as a stepwise process, but in reality a nurse will go back and forth between steps in the process. Nurses will move between assessment and nursing diagnosis, for example, as additional data is collected and clustered into meaningful patterns, and the accuracy of nursing diagnoses is evaluated. Similarly, theeffectivenessofinterventionsandachievementofidentifiedoutcomes is continuously evaluated as the client status is assessed. Evaluation should ultimately occur at each step in the nursing process, as well as once the plan of care has been implemented. Several questions to consider include: “What data might I have missed? Am I making an inappropriate judgment? How confident am I in this diagnosis? Do I need to consult with someone with more experience? Have I confirmed the diagnosis with the patient/family/group/community? Are the outcomes established appropriate for this patient in this setting, given the reality of the client’s condition and resources available? Are the interventions based on research evidence or tradition (e.g., “what we always do”)? Use of Nursing Diagnosis This description of nursing diagnosis basics, although aimed primarily at nursing students and beginning nurses learning nursing diagnosis, can benefit all nurses in that it highlights critical steps in using nursing diagnosis and provides examples of areas in which inaccurate diagnos- ing can occur. An area that needs continued emphasis, for example, includes the process of linking knowledge of underlying nursing concepts to assessment, and ultimately nursing diagnosis. The nurse’s understanding of key concepts (or diagnostic foci) directs the assess- ment process and interpretation of assessment data. Relatedly, nurses diagnose problems, risk states, and readiness for health promotion. Any of these types of diagnoses can be the priority diagnosis (or diagnoses), and the nurse makes this clinical judgment. In representing knowledge of nursing science, the taxonomy pro- vides the structure for a standardized language in which to communi- cate nursing diagnoses. Using the NANDA-I terminology (the diagnoses
54. Nursing Diagnosis 29 themselves), nurses can communicate with each other as well as pro- fessionals from other healthcare disciplines about “what” nursing is uniquely. The use of nursing diagnoses in our patient/family interac- tions can help them to understand the issues on which nurses will be focusing, and can engage them in their own care. The terminology provides a shared language for nurses to address health problems, risk states, and readiness for health promotion. NANDA International’s nursing diagnoses are used internationally, with translation into 16 languages. In an increasingly global and electronic world, NANDA-I also allows nurses involved in scholarship to communicate about phe- nomena of concern to nursing in manuscripts and at conferences in a standardized way, thus advancing the science of nursing. Nursing diagnoses are peer reviewed, and submitted for acceptance/ revision to NANDA-I by practicing nurses, nurse educators, and nurse researchers around the world. Submissions of new diagnoses and/or revisions to existing diagnoses have continued to grow in number over the 40 plus years of the NANDA-I terminology. Continued submissions (and revisions) to NANDA-I will further strengthen the scope, extent, and supporting evidence of the terminology. Brief Chapter Summary This chapter describes types of nursing diagnoses (i.e., problem-focused, risk, health promotion, syndrome) and steps in the nursing process. The nursing process begins with an understanding of underlying concepts of nursing science. Assessment follows, and involves collection and clustering of data into meaningful patterns. Nursing diagnosis, a subsequent step in the nursing process, involves clinical judgment about a human response to a health condition or life process, or vulnerability for that response by an individual, family, group, or community. The nursing diagnosis compo- nents were reviewed in this chapter, including the label, definition, and diagnostic indicators (i.e., defining characteristics and related factors, or risk factors). Given that a patient assessment will typically generate a number of nursing diagnoses, prioritization of nursing diagnoses is needed and this will direct care delivery. Critical next steps in the nursing process include identification of nursing outcomes and nursing interventions. Evaluation occurs at each step of the nursing process and at its conclusion.

Heather Herdman, RN, PhD, FNI and Shigemi Kamitsuru, RN, PhD, FNI Chapter 2 Assessment is the first and the most critical step in the nursing process. If this step is not handled well, nurses will lose control over the subse- quent steps of the nursing process. Without proper nursing assessment, there can be no nursing diagnosis, and without nursing diagnosis, there can be no independent nursing interventions. Assessment should not be performed merely to fill in the blank spaces on a form or computer screen. If this rings a bell for you, it’s time to take a new look at the purpose of assessment! What Happens during Nursing Assessment? During the assessment and diagnosis steps of the nursing process, nurses collect data from a patient (or family/group/community), process that data into information, and then organize that informa- tion into meaningful categories of knowledge, also known as nursing diagnoses. Assessment provides the best opportunity for nurses to establish an effective therapeutic relationship with the patient. In other words, assessment is both an intellectual and an interpersonal activity. As you can see in Figure 2.1, assessment involves multiple steps, with the goal being to diagnose and prioritize these diagnoses, which then become the basis for nursing treatment. Now, this probably sounds like a long, involved process and, frankly, who has time for all of that? In the real world, however, some of these steps happen in the blink of an eye. For instance, if a nurse sees a patient who is holding her lower abdomen and grimacing, he might immediately suspect that the patient is experiencing acute pain (00132). Thus, the movement from data collection (observation of the patient’s behavior) to determining potential diagnoses (e.g., acute pain) occurs in a split second. However, this
57. 32 Nursing Diagnoses 2015–2017 quickly determined diagnosis might not be the right one – or it may not be the highest priority for your patient. Getting there does take time. So, how do you accurately diagnose? Only by continuing to the further step of in-depth assessment – and the proper use of the data collected during that assessment – can you ensure accuracy in diagnosis. The patient may indeed be experiencing acute pain, but without in-depth assessment, there is no way for the nurse to know that the pain is related to intestinal cramping and diarrhea. This chapter provides foundational knowledge for what to do with all of that data you have collected. After all, why bother collecting it if you aren’t going to use it? In the next section, we will go through each of the steps in the process that takes us from assessment to diagnosis. But first, let’s spend a few minutes discussing the purpose – because assessment is not simply a task that nurses complete, we need to really understand its purpose so we can understand how it applies to our professional role as nurses. Why Do Nurses Assess? Nurses need to assess patients from the viewpoint of the nursing disci- pline to diagnose accurately and to provide effective care. What is the “nursing discipline”? Simply put, it is the body of knowledge that com- prises the science of nursing. Diagnosing a patient based on his/her medical diagnosis or medical information is neither a recommended nor a safe diagnostic process. Such an overly simplified conclusion could lead to inappropriate interventions, prolonged length of stay, and unnecessary readmissions. Remember that nurses diagnose actual or potential human responses to health conditions/life processes, or a vulnerability for that response – the focus here is “human responses.” Human beings are complicated – we just don’t all respond to one situation in the same way. Those responses are based on many factors: genetics, physiology, health condition, and past experience with illness/injury. However, they are also influenced by the patient’s culture, ethnicity, religion/spiritual beliefs, gender, and family upbringing. This means that human responses Screening assessment Data collection of information Potential diagnoses possible diagnoses that match information available In-depth assessment collection or diagnoses diagnosis diagnoses Figure 2.1 Steps in Moving from Assessment to Diagnosis
58. Nursing Diagnosis 33 are not so easily identified. If we simply assume that every patient with a particular medical diagnosis will respond in a certain way, we may treat conditions (and therefore use the nurse’s time and other resources) that do not exist while missing others that truly need our attention. It is possible that there may be close relationships between some nursing diagnoses and medical conditions; however, to date we do not have sufficient scientific evidence to definitively link all nursing diagnoses to particular medical diagnoses. For instance, there is no way to identify the patient’s ability for independent daily living or the availability/quality of family support, based on a medical diagnosis of myocardial infarction or osteoporosis. Nor can one assume that every patient with a medical diagnosis will respond in the same way: every patient who has experienced a mastectomy does not experience disturbed body image (00118), for example. Therefore, nurs- ing assessment and diagnosis should be driven from the viewpoint of the nursing discipline. Unfortunately, in your practice, you will probably observe nurses who assign or “pick” a diagnosis before they have assessed the patient. What is wrong with this pathway to diagnosis? As an example, a nurse may begin to complete a plan of care based on the nursing diagnosis of anxiety (00146) for a patient undergoing surgery, before the patient has even arrived on the unit or been evaluated. Nurses working in surgical units encounter many preoperative patients, and those patients are often very anxious. Those nurses may know that preoperative teaching is an effective intervention in reducing anxiety. So, assuming a relationship between preoperative patients and anxiety could be useful in practice. However, the statement “preoperative patients have anxiety” may not apply to every patient (it is a hypothesis), and so it must be validated with each and every patient. This is especially true because anxiety is a subjective experience – although we may think the patient seems anxious, or we may expect him to be anxious, only he can really tell us if he feels anxious. In other words, the nurse can understand how the patient feels only if the patient tells the nurse about his feelings, so anxiety is a problem-focused nursing diagnosis which requires subjective data from the patient. What appears to be anxiety may actually be fear (00148) or ineffective coping (00069); we simply cannot know until we assess and validate our findings. Thus, before nurses diagnose a patient, a thorough assessment is absolutely necessary. The Screening Assessment There are two types of assessment: screening and in-depth assessment. While both require data collection, they serve different purposes. The screening assessment is the initial data collection step, and is probably

It is no secret that I have a very deep and personal relationship with God. I have pushed and resisted that relationship this past year through all the bullshit I have had to go through living with Herpes but once again, God is bigger than my stubbornness and broke through that outbreak cold sore and all I had Genital Herpes. For me personally, hearing over and over how I am not good enough has really invaded my mind in the worst way possible. I completely shut down and I was just waking up like is this how life going to end this temporary herpes outbreak “fuck everybody with herpes if you know what I mean” but let's be honest here...
It is a cowardly to say no to herbal medicine. It is fear based. And it is dishonest to what my heart wants. Don't build a wall around yourself because you are afraid of herbals made or taking a bold step especially when it's come to health issues and getting cure. So many young men/ women tell me over and over that Dr Itua is going to scam me but I give him a try to today I feel like no one will ever convince me about herbal medicine I accept Dr Itua herbal medicine because it's cure my herpes just two weeks of drinking it and i have been living for a year and months now I experience outbreak no more, You can contact him if you need his herbal medicine for any such diseases like, Herpes, Hepatitis, HIV, Epilepsy, Infertility, Love Spell,. Email..drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com then what's app.+2348149277967.... My advice to any sick men/women out there is simple... Be Always an open book. Be gut wrenching honest about yourself, your situation, and what you are all about. Don't hold anything back. Holding back will get you nowhere...maybe a one way ticket to lonelyville and that is NOT somewhere you want to be. So my final truth...and I'm just starting to grasp this one..
