Formulating and Validating Nursing Diagnosis II01:25

Formulating and Validating Nursing Diagnosis II

3.3K
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.
Risk nursing diagnoses represent clinical judgments of an individual, family, or community more vulnerable to developing the health problem than others...

Nursing Diagnosis

3.3K
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.
The nursing diagnosis focuses on evidence-based...

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...

Dissociative Amnesia

206
Dissociative amnesia is a complex psychological condition that manifests as an inability to recall personal information, often tied to traumatic or stressful events. Unlike general amnesia, individuals with this condition retain the ability to perform routine activities and procedural tasks, such as operating a phone or navigating public transportation, yet experience profound gaps in autobiographical memory. These lapses may encompass significant life events, such as suicide attempts or...

Formulating and Validating Nursing Diagnosis I

3.2K
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.
There are thirteen domains...

Summary

Most infants hospitalized for brief resolved unexplained events (BRUE) do not receive a diagnosis during their hospital stay. Further research is needed to identify which infants benefit most from hospitalization for BRUE evaluation.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatrics
  • Emergency Medicine
  • Neonatology

Background:

  • Hospitalization is common for young infants presenting with brief resolved unexplained events (BRUE) to the emergency department (ED).
  • The diagnostic yield of hospitalization for BRUE in infants without an initial explanatory diagnosis is not well-established.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the rate of explanatory diagnoses identified during hospitalization for infants with BRUE.
  • To investigate factors associated with identifying an explanatory diagnosis during hospitalization.

Main Methods:

  • Multicenter retrospective cohort study of infants hospitalized with BRUE.
  • Inclusion criteria: infants without an explanatory diagnosis at admission.
  • Data collected on diagnostic testing, consultations, and observed events during hospitalization.

Main Results:

  • 37.0% of 980 infants received an explanatory diagnosis during hospitalization.
  • Diagnostic testing, consultations, or observed events contributed to diagnosis in only 17.9% of cases.
  • Serious diagnoses were identified in 1.5% of infants, most commonly seizures.

Conclusions:

  • The majority of hospitalizations for BRUE do not yield an explanatory diagnosis.
  • Most identified diagnoses are benign or self-limited.
  • Further research is required to optimize hospitalization criteria for BRUE evaluation.
