The Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC) is a research-based system for measuring patient outcomes after nursing care. This flexible taxonomy aids in assessing patient status across various settings.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Science
  • Health Informatics
  • Patient Outcomes Research

Background:

  • Nursing care significantly influences patient outcomes.
  • A standardized method is needed to measure these outcomes across diverse healthcare settings.
  • Existing systems may lack comprehensiveness or clinical flexibility.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and describe the Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC) system.
  • To highlight the structure and utility of the NOC for assessing patient status.
  • To emphasize the benefits of using a standardized, research-based outcome taxonomy.

Main Methods:

  • Development by a large research team including clinical experts.
  • Inclusion of variable concepts measured on a five-point Likert scale.

  • Each outcome includes definition, indicators, and references for clarity and validation.

    • Main Results:

    • The NOC provides a comprehensive taxonomy of patient outcomes.
    • Outcomes are measurable and applicable across the care continuum.
    • The classification is research-based, standardized, comprehensive, and clinically flexible.

    Conclusions:

    • The Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC) offers a robust framework for evaluating nursing care effectiveness.
    • Its standardized and flexible nature supports consistent patient status assessment.
    • The NOC facilitates research and evidence-based practice in nursing.
