Summary
The International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP®) largely supports electronic nursing data exchange in Taiwan. Developing a localized Taiwan-ICNP® terminology is recommended for future healthcare data exchange.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Informatics
- Health Data Standards
Background:
- The International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP®) was established by the International Council of Nursing (ICN) in 1999.
- Standardized nursing terminologies are crucial for effective electronic health record systems and data exchange.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the applicability of the ICNP® for standardizing electronic nursing data exchange in Taiwan.
- To assess the cross-mapping accuracy of clinical nursing problems to the ICNP® version 2 in traditional Chinese.
Main Methods:
- Cross-mapping of clinical nursing problems to the DC axis of ICNP® version 2.
- Analysis of mapping completeness and agreement using Kappa statistics.
Main Results:
- 87% of clinical nursing problems could be successfully cross-mapped to the ICNP® version 2 in traditional Chinese (Kappa = .96).
- Five specific nursing problems (following care problem, blood transfusion, potential risk for unstable blood sugar level, hyperbilirubinemia, caregiver anxiety) could not be matched.
- The ICNP® demonstrated substantial support for electronic nursing data exchange standardization.
Conclusions:
- The ICNP® is largely applicable for standardizing electronic nursing data exchange in Taiwan.
- Developing a localized Taiwan-ICNP® terminology is a viable strategy to enhance adoption and facilitate future healthcare data exchange across Taiwan.

3.6K
Creating and executing a nursing diagnosis helps nurses plan care and guide patient, family, and community interventions. They are developed based on a patient's physical evaluation and support measuring the outcomes. It is not recommended to select random interventions throughout the planning process. Instead, consider the following six essential factors when choosing interventions:

01:15Nursing Evaluation
4.6K
The evaluation stage signals the end of the nursing process. The nurse gathers evaluative data to assess whether or not the patient has attained the expected results. Whereas the nurse collects data in the nursing assessment to identify the patient's health concerns, the evaluation stage data determines if the indicated health issues are resolved. Evaluative data collection includes two sections: the data acquired to evaluate patient outcomes and the time criteria for data collection.

Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.
