Summary
This study synthesized nursing literature on delusions, developing a clinical data model. This model aims to enhance nursing decision-making and care quality for clients experiencing delusions.
Area of Science:
- Nursing
- Psychiatric Nursing
- Clinical Informatics
Background:
- Delusions present complex challenges in nursing care.
- A structured approach to managing delusions is essential for effective patient outcomes.
- Existing literature requires synthesis to support clinical practice.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore and synthesize existing literature on the nursing process for addressing delusions.
- To identify key components of nursing care related to delusions.
Main Methods:
- A literature review integrated with a scoping study framework was employed.
- A systematic search identified 252 papers, with 39 selected for analysis.
Main Results:
- Relevant data, diagnostic activities, and hypothetical nursing diagnoses for delusions were identified.
- Effective nursing interventions targeting delusions were synthesized.
Conclusions:
- A clinical data model for delusions was developed based on the nursing process.
- This model can improve nursing decision-making, care quality, and nursing-sensitive indicators for delusion management.

Role of Communication in the Nursing Process I: Assessment and Diagnosis
The nursing process uses scientific reasoning, problem-solving, and critical thinking to guide nurses in providing patients with appropriate care. This process is a systematic approach to recognize, avoid, and treat current or potential health issues while promoting the patient's well-being.
The nursing process considers the patient's emotional and physical well-being. The process can be repeated or stopped at any point if judged essential. Assessment is the first step in the nursing process.

Nursing Diagnosis
Following assessment, a nursing diagnosis is the next step in the nursing process. It begins after the nurse has collected and recorded the patient data. The purpose of diagnosing is to identify how the client responds to actual or potential health processes, identify factors that bestow or that cause health problems, the etiologies, and identify resources or strengths the individual, group, or community can draw on to prevent or resolve problems.

Formulating and Validating Nursing Diagnosis I
A nursing diagnosis is written when the nurse recognizes a cluster of essential patient data indicating health problems treated with independent nursing interventions. The standardized terminologies of a nursing diagnosis help nurses identify and treat patients' problems. Every electronic health record that uses nursing diagnosis must employ standard diagnostic terminology. Developing an efficient, individualized care plan begins with accurate nursing diagnoses.

Formulating and Validating Nursing Diagnosis II
Nursing diagnoses represent a problem validated by major defining characteristics. There are four categories of nursing diagnoses: problem-focused, risk, health promotion or wellness, and syndrome. The anatomy of a nursing diagnosis includes three components: problem statement or diagnostic label, defining characteristics, and related factors.

Documentation of Nursing Diagnosis
The nurse documents nursing diagnoses and enters them into the patient record. The identified patient's nursing diagnosis is either written out with a plan of care or entered into the electronic health record.
In some settings, data-driven computerized decision support systems are in place, allowing for more accurate nursing diagnoses. The database within one of these systems includes diagnostic labels defining characteristics, activities, and indicators for nursing. A nurse enters assessment...

Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions
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:
