This document discusses nursing diagnosis, which is the second phase of the nursing process where nurses use critical thinking to interpret assessment data and identify client strengths and problems in order to formulate nursing diagnoses. It provides details on the history and development of nursing diagnosis through organizations like NANDA International, and outlines the 13 domains and associated classes that make up NANDA's standardized nursing diagnosis terminology.
4. In this phase, nurses use critical
thinking skills to interpret
assessment data and identify
client strengths and problems.
5. This phase are directed toward
formulating the nursing
diagnoses.
6. The care planning activities
following this phase are based on
the nursing diagnosis.
7. The identification and development of
nursing diagnoses began formally in
1973, when two faculty members of
Saint Louis University, Kristine
Gebbie and Mary Ann Lavin, perceived
a need to identify nurses’ roles in an
ambulatory care setting.
8. The first national conference to
identify nursing diagnoses was
sponsored by the Saint Louis
University School of Nursing
and Allied Health Professions in
1973.
9. International recognition came with
the First Canadian Conference in
Toronto in 1977 and the International
Nursing Conference in May 1987 in
Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
10. In 1982, the conference group
accepted the name North American
Nursing Diagnosis Association
(NANDA), recognizing the
participation and contributions of
nurses in the United States and
Canada.
11. In 2002, the organization
changed its name to NANDA
International to further reflect
the worldwide interest in
nursing diagnosis.
12. The purpose of NANDA
International is to define, refine,
and promote a taxonomy of nursing
diagnostic terminology of general
use to professional nurses.

13. A taxonomy is a classification
system or set of categories
arranged based on a single
principle or set of principles.
14. The members of NANDA include
staff nurses, clinical specialists,
faculty, directors of nursing,
deans, theorists, and
researchers.
15.
16. To use the concept of nursing
diagnoses effectively in generating
and completing a nursing care plan,
the nurse must be familiar with the
definitions of terms used and the
components of nursing diagnoses.
17. The term diagnosing refers to the
reasoning process, whereas the
term diagnosis is a statement or
conclusion regarding the nature
of a phenomenon.
18. The standardized NANDA names for the
diagnoses are called Diagnostic labels;

21. The official NANDA definition of a
nursing diagnosis is:
“. . . a clinical judgment concerning a
human response to health conditions/
life processes, or a vulnerability for that
response, by an individual, family,
group, or community”.
