This respected resource offers definitive guidance on key elements of
nursing diagnosis, its role in the nursing process, and its application to
clinical practice. Section One thoroughly explains the role of nursing
diagnosis in the nursing process and in care planning. Section Two offers
a comprehensive A-to-Z guide to current nursing diagnoses, including
the most recent diagnoses approved by NANDA International. Section
Three focuses on collaborative problems. Nursing Interventions
Classifications (NIC) and Nursing Outcomes Classifications (NOC) are
listed for every NANDA-I diagnosis. Key features such as Author’s Notes
and Errors in Diagnostic Statements help the nurse to understand the
concept behind the diagnosis, differentiate one diagnosis from another,
and avoid diagnostic errors.
