Profile, reasons for hospitalization and nursing diagnoses of refugee-native patients admitted to internal medicine clinic-an evaluation from nursing perspective.

PURPOSE: The study aims to evaluate the hospitalization diagnoses and nursing diagnoses of the refugee and local population hospitalized in internal medicine clinics, which are especially important in the early diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of chronic diseases, and to emphasize their importance in nursing care. METHODS: The study was carried out in a descriptive retrospective design. The files of 3563 patients admitted to the internal medicine clinic of a training and research hospital in Türkiye in 2022 were evaluated. SPSS 26.0 program was used for data analysis. RESULTS: In the study, 95.3% of hospitalizations were native and 4.7% were refugee patients. It was determined that refugee patients admitted to the internal medicine service had a lower mean age compared to the native population (p < 0.05), but there was no difference in the duration of hospitalization (p > 0.05). When the medical diagnoses of hospitalization were examined, it was determined that the highest number of hospitalizations in the native and refugee populations were for bacterial infections in both genders. In nursing diagnoses, it was determined that both populations and genders were diagnosed with infection risk by the medical diagnoses of the patients. CONCLUSION: As a result of the study, it was observed that the duration of hospitalization, reasons for hospitalization, and nursing diagnoses of local and refugee patients were similar. In addition, it was determined that the patients' medical hospitalization diagnoses and nursing diagnoses were compatible.

Contributions of representing the elements of nursing practice in the ISO 18.104:2023 standard: a theoretical study.

OBJECTIVE: To reflect on the contributions of representing nursing practice elements in the ISO 18.104:2023 standard. METHOD: This is a theoretical study with standard analysis. Categorical structures were described to represent nursing practice in terminological systems and contributions identified in the parts of the version were analyzed. RESULTS: There is innovation in the inclusion of nurse sensitive outcomes, nursing action, nursing diagnosis explanation as an indicator of nursing service demand and complexity of care, representation of concepts through mental maps and suggestion of use of restriction models for nursing actions. It describes that the Nursing Process is constituted by nursing diagnosis, nursing action and nurse sensitive outcomes. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: Indicating a nursing diagnosis as an indicator will bring benefits for knowledge production and decision-making. Although care outcomes are not exclusive responses to nursing action, the modifiable attributes of a nursing diagnosis generate knowledge about clinical practice, nursing action effectiveness and subjects of care' health state. There is coherence in understanding the Nursing Process concept evolution.

Clinical validation of the terminological subset for people with chronic kidney disease undergoing conservative treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To clinically validate a terminological subset of the International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP®) to care for people with chronic kidney disease undergoing conservative treatment. METHOD: Prospective study of clinical validation assessment of 117 nursing diagnoses/outcomes statements and 199 nursing intervention statements. It was operationalized through the following steps: implementation of the Nursing Process in an outpatient clinic in Southeast Brazil; preparation of case studies; analysis of agreement between specialist nurses. The Kappa. Kruskal-Wallis coefficient of agreement and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were used. RESULTS: The sample consisted of 50 people with chronic kidney disease. Diagnoses/outcomes and interventions were evaluated with almost perfect/perfect agreement and excellent ICC. The Kruskal-Wallis test showed that there was no significant difference between the assessments. The study allowed the clinical validation of a subset with 110 nursing diagnoses/outcomes and 195 nursing interventions. CONCLUSION: Care for people with chronic kidney disease undergoing conservative treatment based on the proposed subset has become applicable to clinical practice.

ICNP® terminological subset for preventing falls in the elderly in primary care.

OBJECTIVE: Build and validate a terminological subset of ICNP® for the prevention of falls in the elderly in the context of primary health care, in light of the Self-Care Deficit Theory. METHOD: Methodological study developed in accordance with ICN recommendations and the Brazilian method for constructing terminological subsets, in two stages: 1) construction of ICNP® statements of nursing diagnoses, outcomes, and interventions; 2) content validation of statements by specialist nurses. RESULTS: A total of 182 diagnoses/outcomes and 321 nursing interventions were constructed, which were subjected to content validation by 28 experts, being validated with a Content Validity Index ≥ 0.80. After validation, the statements were organized according to self-care requirements and the majority of diagnoses/outcomes (51.6%) and interventions (52.7%) were classified under health deviation requirements. CONCLUSION: It was possible to construct and validate a terminological subset of ICNP® with a predominance of statements related to health deviation requirements, standing out for being the first terminological subset for the prevention of falls in the elderly in the context of primary care.

Content validation of the nursing diagnosis "inadequate social support network".

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate evidence of content validity of the nursing diagnosis "inadequate social support network". METHOD: A methodological study of the content validation type, carried out with 23 judges who evaluated the adequacy of the title, definition, class and domain of the nursing diagnosis "inadequate social support network". The judges also assessed the relevance of 28 clinical indicators and 32 etiological factors, which were considered valid when the Content Validity Index was ≥ 0.9. RESULTS: The judges agreed with the proposed title and suggested changes to the definition of the nursing diagnosis. They recommended its inclusion in Domain 7 - "Roles and relationships" and Class 3 - "Role performance" of the NANDA-I taxonomy. In addition, 19 clinical indicators and 27 etiological factors were considered relevant. CONCLUSION: The nursing diagnosis "inadequate social support network" had its theoretical structure validated in terms of content, which can support the practice of nurses in the operationalization of the Nursing Process.

The ChatGPT effect and transforming nursing education with generative AI: Discussion paper.

AIM: The aim of this study is to present the possibilities of nurse education in the use of the Chat Generative Pre-training Transformer (ChatGPT) tool to support the documentation process. BACKGROUND: The success of the nursing process is based on the accuracy of nursing diagnoses, which also determine nursing interventions and nursing outcomes. Educating nurses in the use of artificial intelligence in the nursing process can significantly reduce the time nurses spend on documentation. DESIGN: Discussion paper. METHODS: We used a case study from Train4Health in the field of preventive care to demonstrate the potential of using Generative Pre-training Transformer (ChatGPT) to educate nurses in documenting the nursing process using generative artificial intelligence. Based on the case study, we entered a description of the patient's condition into Generative Pre-training Transformer (ChatGPT) and asked questions about nursing diagnoses, nursing interventions and nursing outcomes. We further synthesized these results. RESULTS: In the process of educating nurses about the nursing process and nursing diagnosis, Generative Pre-training Transformer (ChatGPT) can present potential patient problems to nurses and guide them through the process from taking a medical history, setting nursing diagnoses and planning goals and interventions. Generative Pre-training Transformer (ChatGPT) returned appropriate nursing diagnoses, but these were not in line with the North American Nursing Diagnosis Association - International (NANDA-I) classification as requested. Of all the nursing diagnoses provided, only one was consistent with the most recent version of the North American Nursing Diagnosis Association - International (NANDA-I). Generative Pre-training Transformer (ChatGPT) is still not specific enough for nursing diagnoses, resulting in incorrect answers in several cases. CONCLUSIONS: Using Generative Pre-training Transformer (ChatGPT) to educate nurses and support the documentation process is time-efficient, but it still requires a certain level of human critical-thinking and fact-checking.

Identification of North American Nursing Diagnosis Association-Nursing Interventions Classification-Nursing Outcomes Classification of nursing home residents using on-time data by android smartphone application by registered nurses.

PURPOSE: We aimed to investigate the nursing process linkages formed by Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) and Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC) according to the primary NANDA-I diagnoses by registered nurses (RNs), customized to nursing home (NH) residents in Korea, using a developed smartphone application for NH RNs. METHODS: This is a retrospective descriptive study. Applying quota sampling, a total of 51 NHs from all operating 686 NHs hiring RNs participated in this study. Data were collected from June 21 to July 30, 2022. Data on NANDA-I, NIC, NOC (NNN) of nurses applied to the NH residents were collected through a developed smartphone application. The application consists of general organization and residents' characteristics, NANDA-I, NIC, and NOC. RNs selected randomly up to 10 residents and NANDA-I with risk factors and related factors over the past 7 days, followed by all applied interventions out of 82 NIC. RNs then evaluated residents through 79 selected NOC. RESULTS: We found the frequently used NANDA-I diagnoses, Nursing Interventions Classifications and Nursing Outcomes and Classifications applied for NH residents by RNs and developed the top five NOC linkages used to build care plan. CONCLUSION: It is time to pursue high-level evidence and reply to the questions raised in NH practice using NNN with high technology. The outcomes for patients and nursing staff are improved by the continuity of care made possible by uniform language. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: NNN linkages should be used to construct and utilize the coding system of electronic health records or electronic medical records in Korean long-term care facilities.

Capturing key function-focused care problems, nursing diagnoses, and interventions for nursing home patients using a web-based case management system.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to identify the key functional care problems, NANDA-I nursing diagnoses, and intervention plans related to function-focused care (FFC) using a web-based case management system for patients who present different cognitive status. METHODS: This study employed a retrospective descriptive research design. Data were obtained from system records on patients after the research team trained the case management system at a nursing home in Dangjin in South Chungcheong Province, South Korea. A total of 119 inpatient records were analyzed. RESULTS: The key physical, cognitive, and social functional problems, nursing diagnoses in six domains (health promotion, elimination and exchange, activity/rest, perception/cognition, coping/stress tolerance, and safety/protection), and intervention plans were identified. CONCLUSION: The identified FFC case management information of interdisciplinary caregivers will provide evidence for the implementation of effective interventions according to a patient's functional status. Additional studies related to the establishment of a large clinical database of advanced case management systems focusing on interdisciplinary caregivers' functional management are needed to support the prioritization of functional care.

Deficient knowledge in patients with heart failure: A study of diagnostic accuracy and etiological relationships.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the accuracy of defining characteristics and causal relationships of the etiological factors of the nursing diagnosis deficient knowledge in individuals with heart failure . DATA SOURCES: An analytical, cross-sectional study on the diagnostic accuracy of the defining characteristics and causal relationships of the etiological factors of the nursing diagnosis. The sample consisted of 140 patients with chronic HF and in outpatient follow-up. The latent class analysis method was used to test the accuracy of measurements and estimate the prevalence of the diagnosis. The calculation of subsequent probabilities and the odds ratio ( were also parameters employed. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Pernambuco. DATA SYNTHESIS: The diagnosis had an estimated prevalence of 38.57% in the sample. The inaccurate statements about the disease and/or therapy, self-care deficient performance, and inadequate behavior were the clinical indicators that best predicted the presence of the diagnosis and demonstrated the same sensitivity value (1.0000), specificity (1.0000), and 95% confidence interval (0.9999-1.0000) for all. The populations at risk was elderly (OR = 2.12, confidence interval 95% = 1.05-4.27), and illiterate individuals (OR = 2.07, confidence interval 95% = 1.03-4.16) had an approximately twofold great chance of developing havening deficient knowledge. CONCLUSION: The evaluation of the accuracy of clinical indicators, corresponding to the defining characteristics in the study, contributed to screening and diagnostic establishment capacity in clinical practice, and to the translation of theoretical and practical knowledge. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: Accurate clinical indicators of the nursing diagnosis deficient knowledge facilitate the clinical reasoning of nurses and favor the professional's role in the development of health education strategies focused on the acquisition of knowledge about the disease by patients, family members, and caregivers.

As populações em risco Idoso (Odds Ratio = 2.12, intervalo de confiança 95% = 1.05­4.27) e Indivíduos analfabetos (Odds Ratio = 2.07, intervalo de confiança 95% = 1.03­4.16) apresentaram, aproximadamente, duas vezes a chance de desenvolver o conhecimento deficiente. CONCLUSÃO: A avaliação da acurácia dos indicadores clínicos, correspondentes as características definidoras no estudo, contribuiu para a capacidade de triagem e estabelecimento de diagnósticos na prática clínica e para a tradução de conhecimentos teóricos e práticos. IMPLICAÇÕES PARA PRÁTICA DE ENFERMAGEM: Indicadores clínicos acurados do diagnóstico de enfermagem Conhecimento deficiente facilitam o raciocínio clínico do enfermeiro e favorecem a atuação do profissional na elaboração de estratégias de educação em saúde focadas na aquisição do conhecimento sobre a doença por parte de pacientes, familiares e cuidadores.

Evaluation of clinical oral care outcomes according to nursing outcomes classification.

PURPOSE: This research was planned to follow the healing process of the oral mucosa in patients in intensive care with an "Impaired Oral Mucous Membrane Integrity" nursing diagnosis based on the "NOC (1100) Oral Health Assessment" outcome criteria. METHOD: This study, which was planned in a methodological and descriptive type of research, was carried out with 50 patients who were hospitalized in the intensive care clinic of a state hospital between June and December 2022, with a nursing diagnosis of "Impaired Oral Mucous Membrane Integrity." Data were collected using a Patient Information Form and the "NOC (1100) Oral Health Evaluation Scale" for the nursing outcomes classification. In the analysis of the data descriptive statistical methods, Pearson correlation test, Friedman test as well as Cohen's kappa test were used to evaluate the agreement between two independent observers. FINDINGS: In the study, content validity index value of the NOC scale was calculated to be 0.90. The examination of the participants' mean scores on the NOC (1100) Oral Health Assessment Scale showed that there were statistically significant differences in terms of the repeated evaluations, except for the NOC indicators of "Oral mucosal integrity," "Gum integrity," and "Tooth integrity" (p < 0.01). No statistically significant correlation was found between the mean NOC scale scores of the patients according to the variables of age, body mass index, mechanical ventilation time, and length of stay in the intensive care unit (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The findings showed that the Turkish version of NOC (1100) Oral Health Assessment Scale was a valid tool for monitoring the healing process of the oral mucosa in patients in intensive care. IMPLICATIONS OF NURSING PRACTICE: With the use of NOC (1100) Oral Health Assessment Scale, a common language will be formed in the evaluation for monitoring the healing process of the oral mucosa in nursing care.

Development and validation of a case study to aid in the diagnostic reasoning of nursing students and nurses.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to develop and validate a case study to aid in the diagnostic reasoning of nursing students and nurses. METHODS: It is a validation study using a case study based on Lunney's method including (1) content validation of the case study by nurse experts through the Delphi technique, (2) identification of nursing diagnoses (NDs) in the case, (3) evaluation of diagnostic accuracy, and (4) establishment of a priority diagnosis by nurse experts. FINDINGS: The case study was developed from the findings of a narrative literature review on the cues of the NDs with a prevalence > 50% in patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease. Two rounds of expert evaluation were required to validate the case study. The experts identified 18 NDs with different degrees of accuracy. The highly accurate diagnoses most frequently identified by the experts were: Ineffective peripheral tissue perfusion (100%), impaired walking (83%), impaired comfort (50%), and chronic pain (50%). The diagnosis considered a priority by all experts was ineffective peripheral tissue perfusion. CONCLUSIONS: The case study was developed and had its content validated. High-accuracy diagnoses were identified, and a priority was determined. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: The validated case study may be used by students and nurses to facilitate the development of diagnostic reasoning and critical thinking in practice, teaching or research.

A retrospective descriptive study of NANDA-I nursing diagnoses used by midwives working in obstetrics and gynecologic service: An example from south-eastern Turkey.

PURPOSE: This study aims to identify NANDA-I nursing diagnoses that midwives working in obstetrics and gynecologic service use while managing the electronic nursing care process. METHODS: This retrospective study was conducted in a descriptive way to evaluate electronic care plan records of 3025 patients staying in obstetrics and gynecologic service between April 1, 2020. and April 1, 2021. Diagnoses in the records of the electronic care process were digitalized by two faculty members. Then, NANDA-I nursing diagnoses used by midwives were identified. NANDA-I nursing diagnoses used by midwives were identified. FINDINGS: It was determined that diagnoses in care plans documented from the system within the 1-year period fell into eight domains and 10 classes, and 5819 diagnoses were given in total. The most frequent diagnoses given in obstetrics and gynecologic service were "acute pain" and "risk for bleeding." CONCLUSION: Findings of this study revealed that nursing care records in obstetrics and gynecologic service did not have a large number of diagnoses and interventions. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: Care plans directly reflect the contribution of the care to the patient. Consequently, midwives being aware of and recording nursing diagnoses while giving care will ensure a standardized language and visibility in care. More coverage of midwifery-related diagnoses in the midwifery curriculum will make NANDA-I nursing diagnoses more visible in midwifery as well.

Nursing Diagnosis Accuracy in Nursing Education: Clinical Decision Support System Compared With Paper-Based Documentation-A Before and After Study.

Computer-based technologies have been widely used in nursing education, although the best educational modality to improve documentation and nursing diagnostic accuracy using electronic health records is still under investigation. It is important to address this gap and seek an effective way to address increased accuracy around nursing diagnoses identification. Nursing diagnoses are judgments that represent a synthesis of data collected by the nurse and used to guide interventions and to achieve desirable patients' outcomes. This current investigation is aimed at comparing the nursing diagnostic accuracy, satisfaction, and usability of a computerized system versus a traditional paper-based approach. A total of 66 nursing students solved three validated clinical scenarios using the NANDA-International terminologies traditional paper-based approach and then the computer-based Clinical Decision Support System. Study findings indicated a significantly higher nursing diagnostic accuracy ( P < .001) in solving cancer and stroke clinical scenarios, whereas there was no significant difference in acute myocardial infarction scenario. The use of the electronic system increased the number of correct diagnostic indicators ( P < .05); however, the level of students' satisfaction was similar. The usability scores highlighted the need to make the electronic documentation systems more user-friendly.

Creating Subsets of International Classification for Nursing Practice Precoordinated Concepts: Diagnoses/Outcomes and Interventions Categorized Into Areas of Nursing Practice.

The International Classification for Nursing Practice is a comprehensive terminology representing the domain of nursing practice. A categorization of the diagnoses/outcomes and interventions may further increase the usefulness of the terminology in clinical practice. The aim of this study was to categorize the precoordinated concepts of the International Classification for Nursing Practice into subsets for nursing diagnoses/outcomes and interventions using the structure of an established documentation model. The aim was also to investigate the distribution of the precoordinated concepts of the International Classification for Nursing Practice across the different areas of nursing practice. The method was a descriptive content analysis using a deductive approach. The VIPS model was used as a theoretical framework for categorization. The results showed that all the precoordinated concepts of the International Classification for Nursing Practice could be categorized according to the keywords in the VIPS model. It also revealed the parts of nursing practice covered by the concepts of the International Classification for Nursing Practice as well as the parts that needed to be added to the International Classification for Nursing Practice. This has not been identified in earlier subsets as they covered only one specific area of nursing.
