Accuracy of nursing diagnoses: concept development.

M Lunney

    Nursing Diagnosis : ND : the Official Journal of the North American Nursing Diagnosis Association
    |January 1, 1990
    PubMed
    Summary

    Nursing diagnosis accuracy is redefined as a continuous variable, moving beyond the traditional accurate/inaccurate dichotomy. This conceptual shift highlights the relativistic nature of nursing diagnosis accuracy for better theory development.

    Area of Science:

    • Nursing
    • Nursing Diagnosis
    • Theory Development

    Background:

    • Traditional view of nursing diagnosis accuracy is binary (accurate/inaccurate).
    • Need for a more nuanced conceptualization of accuracy in nursing practice.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a theory related to nursing diagnosis.
    • To redefine the concept of accuracy in nursing diagnoses.

    Main Methods:

    • Conceptual analysis of accuracy in nursing diagnoses.
    • Delineation of characteristics of accuracy.

    Main Results:

    • Accuracy of nursing diagnoses is redefined as a continuous variable.
    • Emphasizes the relativistic nature of nursing diagnosis accuracy.

    Conclusions:

    • The redefined concept of accuracy supports further theory development in nursing diagnosis.
    • A continuous variable approach offers a more sophisticated understanding of nursing diagnosis accuracy.
