In Memory of Betty J. Ackley

Dreams Dreams come

Dreams go Whispers, shouts, images

Dreams come Dreams go

Follow, follow*

Betty believed in dreams. This textbook was our dream. We set out to write the best nursing diagnosis textbook ever. Our book is now in 1400 nursing programs. It has been high on Amazon’s best seller list. I think her dream is realized. From a handout to students to an international publication. Thank you, dear friend Betty.

Betty passed away in December 2014 at her home with her husband (Dale) and daughter (Dawn) present.

Betty fought a gallant battle with pancreatic cancer for nine months. She loved life, her family, and the profession of nursing. She was an active member of NANDA-I for more than two decades. She was also Professor Emeritus, Jackson Community College (Jackson, Michigan). Betty was an instructor at Jackson Community College for 34 years and was named Faculty of the Year.

Betty provided presentations on nursing diagnosis in Japan and across the United States. She wrote a column on nursing diagnosis for a Japanese journal, Expert Nurse. Betty was known for her work as a co-author of several textbooks on diagnoses, outcomes, and interventions. She served on several NANDA-I committees over the years, the most recent of which was as Chair of the most recent nomi- nating committee. She recruited one of the strongest slates of nominees that NANDA-I has had in many years, due to her tireless efforts.

Betty will be remembered as a very giving person. She had an ability to help others in their time of need and provide comfort and direction for them. She was a certified instructor in aerobics, spin- ning, Zumba, and Pilates. For years she loved to run, and she finished two Detroit Marathons. Her passion included gardening, traveling, authoring this textbook, and watching her two grandchil- dren grow.

The following is a quote from Betty’s husband: Betty saw a need and was able to help fill that need by working to complete this book and see it through to publication. She was very proud of each edition of this book. She always strived to make each edition as good as it could be.

Betty was a loving daughter, grandmother, mother, and wife. She cared about people and was always helping everyone to be their very best. This book will continue to be her way of giving to the profession she loved. Nursing gave a lot to Betty, and she returned the love of nursing by writing the most helpful book she could write.

Dale Ackley

Also Dedicated to Jerry Ladwig, my wonderful husband, who, after 51 years, is still supportive and helpful—he has been “my right-hand man” in every revision of this book. Also to my very special children, their spouses, and all of my grandchildren: Jerry, Kathy, Alexandra, Elizabeth, and Benjamin Ladwig; Christine, John, Sean, Ciara, and Bridget McMahon; Jennifer, Jim, Abby, Katelyn, Blake, and Connor Martin; Amy, Scott, Ford, and Vaughn Bertram—the greatest family anyone could ever hope for.

Gail B. Ladwig

My husband, Zlatko, and children, Alexander and Erik, whose unconditional love and support are ever present in my life. To my parents and sisters for always encouraging me to follow my passion. To Gail, for her incredible mentorship, guidance, and encouragement this past year. And finally to Betty, for believing in me and providing me with an opportunity to more fully contribute to this amazing textbook in support of nurses and the patients and families we serve.

She has presented nationally and internationally, includ- ing Paris, Tokyo, and Puerto Rico, on many topics, including nursing diagnosis, computerized care planning, and holistic nursing topics.

Preface

Nursing Diagnosis Handbook: An Evidence-Based Guide to Planning Care is a convenient reference to help the practicing nurse or nursing student make a nursing diagnosis and write a care plan with ease and confidence. This handbook helps nurses correlate nursing diagnoses with known information about clients on the basis of assessment findings; established medical, surgical, or psychiatric diagnoses; and the current treatment plan.

Making a nursing diagnosis and planning care are complex processes that involve diagnostic reasoning and critical think- ing skills. Nursing students and practicing nurses cannot pos- sibly memorize the extensive list of defining characteristics, related factors, and risk factors for the 235 diagnoses approved by NANDA-International. There are two additional diagnoses that the authors think are significant: Hearing Loss and Vision Loss. These diagnoses are contained in Appendix E. This book correlates suggested nursing diagnoses with what nurses know about clients and offers a care plan for each nursing diagnosis.

Section I, Nursing Process, Clinical Reasoning, Nursing Diagnosis, and Evidence-Based Nursing, is divided into two parts. Part A includes an overview of the nursing process. This section provides information on how to make a nursing diagnosis and directions on how to plan nursing care. It also includes information on using clinical reasoning skills and eliciting the “client’s story.” Part B includes advanced nursing concepts: Concept mapping, QSEN (Quality and Safety Education for Nurses), Evidence-based nursing care, Quality nursing care, Patient-centered care, Safety, Informatics in nursing, Team/collaborative work with multidisciplinary team, and Root cause thinking.

In Section II, Guide to Nursing Diagnoses, the nurse can look up symptoms and problems and their suggested nursing diagnoses for more than 1450 client symptoms; medical, surgical, and psychiatric diagnoses; diagnostic procedures; surgical interventions; and clinical states.

In Section III, Guide to Planning Care, the nurse can find care plans for all nursing diagnoses suggested in Section II. We have included the suggested nursing outcomes from the Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC) and interven- tions from the Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) by the Iowa Intervention Project. We believe this work is a sig- nificant addition to the nursing process to further define nursing practice with standardized language.

Scientific rationales based on research are included for most of the interventions. This is done to make the evidence base of nursing practice apparent to the nursing student and practicing nurse.

New special features of the eleventh edition of Nursing Diagnosis Handbook: An Evidence-Based Guide to Planning Care include the following: • Labeling of classic older research studies that are still rel-

evant as Classic Evidence Based (CEB) • Twenty-six new nursing diagnoses recently approved by

NANDA-I, along with retiring seven nursing diagnoses: Disturbed energy field, Adult failure to thrive, Readiness for enhanced immunization status, Imbalanced nutrition: more than body requirements, Risk for imbalanced nutri- tion: more than body requirements, Impaired environ- mental interpretation syndrome, and Delayed growth and development

• Five revisions of nursing diagnoses made by NANDA-I in existing nursing diagnoses • Old diagnosis: Ineffective Self-Health management

Revised diagnosis: Ineffective Health management • Old diagnosis: Readiness for enhanced Self-Health

management Revised diagnosis: Readiness for enhanced Health management

• Old diagnosis: Ineffective family Therapeutic Regimen Management Revised diagnosis: Ineffective family Health management

• Old diagnosis: Impaired individual Resilience Revised diagnosis: Impaired Resilience

• Old diagnosis: Risk for compromised Resilience Revised diagnosis: Risk for impaired Resilience

• Further addition of pediatric and critical care interven- tions to appropriate care plans

• An associated Evolve Online Course Management System that includes a care plan constructor, critical thinking case studies, Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) and Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC) labels, PowerPoint slides, and review questions for the NCLEX-RN® exam

• Appendixes for Nursing Diagnoses Arranged by Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, Nursing Diagnoses Arranged by Gor- don’s Functional Health Patterns, Motivational Interview- ing for Nurses, Wellness-Oriented Diagnostic Categories, and Nursing Care Plans for Hearing Loss and Vision Loss The following features of Nursing Diagnosis Handbook: A

Guide to Planning Care are also available: • Suggested nursing diagnoses for more than 1450 clinical

entities, including signs and symptoms, medical diagno- ses, surgeries, maternal-child disorders, mental health disorders, and geriatric disorders

2 Section i

The primary goals of nursing are to (1) determine client/ family responses to human problems, level of wellness, and need for assistance; (2) provide physical care, emotional care, teaching, guidance, and counseling; and (3) implement inter- ventions aimed at prevention and assisting the client to meet his or her own needs and health-related goals. The nurse must always focus on assisting clients and families to their highest level of functioning and self-care. The care that is provided should be structured in a way that allows clients the ability to influence their health care and accomplish their self- efficacy goals. The nursing process, which is a problem- solving approach to the identification and treatment of client problems, provides a framework for assisting clients and families to their optimal level of functioning. The nursing process involves five dynamic and fluid phases: assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation. Within each of these phases, the client and family story is embedded and is used as a foundation for knowledge, judg- ment, and actions brought to the client care experience. A description of the “patient’s story” and each aspect of the nursing process follow.

THE “PATIENT’S STORY” The “patient’s story” is a term used to describe objective and subjective information about the client that describes who the client is as a person in addition to their usual medical history. Specific aspects of the story include physiological, psychological, and family characteristics; available resources; environmental and social context; knowledge; and motiva- tion. Care is influenced, and often driven, by what the client states—verbally or through their physiologic state. The “patient’s story” is fluid and must be shared and understood throughout the client’s health care experience.

There are multiple sources for obtaining the patient’s story. The primary source for eliciting this story is through communicating directly with the client and the client’s family. It is important to understand how the illness (or wellness) state has affected the client physiologically, psychologically, and spiritually. The client’s perception of his or her health state is important to understand and may have an impact on subsequent interventions. At times, clients will be unable to tell their story verbally, but there is still much they can com- municate through their physical state. The client’s family (as the client defines them) is a valuable source of information and can provide a rich perspective on the client. Other

valuable sources of the “patient’s story” include the client’s health record. Every time a piece of information is added to the health record, it becomes a part of the “patient’s story.” All nursing care is driven by the client’s story. The nurse must have a clear understanding of the story to effec- tively complete the nursing process. Understanding the full story also provides an avenue for identifying mutual goals with the client and family aimed at improving client out- comes and goals.

Note: The “patient’s story” is terminology that is used to describe a holistic assessment of information about the client, with the client’s and the family’s input as much as possible. In this text, we use the term “patient’s story” in quotes whenever we refer to the specific process. In all other places, we use the term client in place of the word patient; we think labeling the person as a client is more respectful and empowering for the person. Client is also the term that is used in the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN) test plan (National Council of State Boards of Nursing, 2013).

Understanding the “patient’s story” is critically important, in that psychological, socioeconomic, and spiritual character- istics play a significant role in the client’s ability and desire to access health care. Also knowing and understanding the “patient’s story” is an integral first step in giving client- centered care. In today’s health care world, the focus is on the client, which leads to increased satisfaction with care. Improv- ing the client’s health care experience is part of the Affordable Care Act and is tied to reimbursement through value-based purchasing of care: “participating hospitals are paid for inpa- tient acute care services based on the quality of care, not just quantity of services they provide” (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, 2014).

THE NURSING PROCESS The nursing process is an organizing framework for profes- sional nursing practice, a critical thinking process for the nurse to use to give the best care possible to the client. It is very similar to the steps used in scientific reasoning and problem solving. This section is designed to help the nursing student learn how to use this thinking process, the nursing process. Key components of the process include the steps listed below. An easy, convenient way to remember the steps of the nursing process is to use an acronym, ADPIE (Figure I-1):

A The Nursing Process: Using Clinical Reasoning Skills to

the client. To elicit as much information as possible, the nurse should use open-ended questions, rather than questions that can be answered with a simple “yes” or “no.”

In screening for depression in older clients, the following open-ended questions are useful (Lusk & Fater, 2013): • What made you come here today? • What do you think your problem is? • What do you think caused your problem? • Are you worried about anything in particular? • What have you tried to do about the problem so far? • What would you like me to do about your problem? • Is there anything else you would like to discuss today?

These types of questions will encourage the client to give more information about his or her situation. Listen carefully for cues and record relevant information that the client shares. Even when the client’s physical condition or develop- mental age makes it impossible for them to verbally com- municate with the health care team, nurses may be able to communicate with the client’s family or significant other to learn more about the client. This information that is obtained verbally from the client is considered subjective information.

Information is also obtained by performing a physical assessment, taking vital signs, and noting diagnostic test results. This information is considered objective information.

The information from all of these sources is used to for- mulate a nursing diagnosis. All of this information needs to be carefully documented on the forms provided by the agency or school of nursing. When recording information, the HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) (Foster, 2012) regulations need to be followed carefully. To protect client confidentiality, the client’s name should not be used on the student care plan. When the assessment is complete, proceed to the next step.

STEP 2: NURSING DIAGNOSIS (ADPIE)

In the diagnosis phase of the nursing process, the nurse begins clustering the information within the client story and formulates an evaluative judgment about a client’s health status. Only after a thorough analysis—which includes recog- nizing cues, sorting through and organizing or clustering the information, and determining client strengths and unmet needs—can an appropriate diagnosis be made. This process of thinking is called clinical reasoning. Clinical reasoning is a cognitive process that uses formal and informal thinking strategies to gather and analyze client information, evaluate the significance of this information, and determine the value of alternative actions (Benner, 2010). Benner (2010) describes this cognitive process as “thinking like a nurse.” Watson and Rebair (2014) referred to “noticing” as a precursor to clinical reasoning. By noticing the nurse can preempt possible risks or support subtle changes toward recovery. Noticing can be the activity that stimulates nursing action before words are exchanged, preempting need. The nurse synthesizes the

1. Assess: perform a nursing assessment 2. Diagnose: make nursing diagnoses 3. Plan: formulate and write outcome/goal statements and

determine appropriate nursing interventions based on the client’s reality and evidence (research)

4. Implement care 5. Evaluate the outcomes and the nursing care that has been

implemented. Make necessary revisions in care interven- tions as needed. The following is an overview and practical application of

the steps of the nursing process. The steps are listed in the usual order in which they are performed.

STEP 1: ASSESSMENT (ADPIE) The assessment phase of the nursing process is foundational for appropriate diagnosis, planning, and intervention. Data on all dimensions of the “patient’s story,” including biophysi- cal, psychological, sociocultural, spiritual, and environmental characteristics, are embedded in the assessment. It involves performing a thorough holistic nursing assessment of the client. This is the first step needed to make an appropriate nursing diagnosis, and it is done using the assessment format adopted by the facility or educational institution in which the practice is situated.

The nurse assesses components of the “patient’s story” every time an assessment is performed. Often, nurses focus on the physical component of the story (e.g., temperature, blood pressure, breath sounds). This component is certainly critical, but it is only one piece. Indeed, one of the unique and wonderful aspects of nursing is the holistic theory that is applied to clients and families. Clients are active partners in the healing process. Nurses must increasingly develop the skills and systems to incorporate client preferences into care (Hess & Markee, 2014). “The challenge facing the nation, and the opportunity afforded by the Affordable Care Act, is to move from a culture of sickness to a culture of care and then to a culture of health” (Institute of Medicine, 2013). Assess- ment information is obtained first by completing a thorough health and medical history, and by listening to and observing

Here we use the example of a beginning nursing student who is attempting to understand the nursing process and how to make a nursing diagnosis:

Problem: Use the nursing diagnosis label deficient Knowl- edge from the NANDA-I list. Remember to check the definition: “Absence or deficiency of cognitive information related to a specific topic” (Herdman & Kamitsuru, 2014).

Etiology: r/t unfamiliarity with information about the nursing process and nursing diagnosis. At this point the beginning nurse would not be familiar with available resources regarding the nursing process.

Symptoms: Defining characteristics, as evidenced by (aeb) verbalization of lack of understanding: “I don’t understand this, and I really don’t know how to make a nursing diagnosis.”

When using the PES system, look at the S first, then for- mulate the three-part statement. (You would have gotten the S, symptoms, which are defining characteristics, from your assessment.)

Therefore, the three-part nursing diagnosis is: deficient Knowledge r/t unfamiliarity with information about the nursing process and nursing diagnosis aeb verbalization of lack of understanding.

Types of Nursing Diagnoses There are three different types of nursing diagnoses.

Problem-Focused Diagnosis. “A clinical judgment con- cerning an undesirable human response to a health condition/ process that exists in an individual, family, group or com- munity” (Herdman & Kamitsuru, 2014, p 22).

“Related factors are an integral part of all problem-focused diagnoses. They are etiologies, circumstances, facts or influ- ences that have some type of relationship with the nursing diagnosis” (Herdman & Kamitsuru, 2014, p 26).

Example of a Problem-Focused Nursing Diagnosis. Overweight related to excessive intake in relation to meta- bolic needs, concentrating food intake at the end of the day aeb weight 20% over ideal for height and frame. Note: This is a three-part nursing diagnosis.

Risk Nursing Diagnosis. Risk nursing diagnosis is a “clinical judgment concerning the vulnerability of an indi- vidual, family, group, or community for developing an unde- sirable human response to health conditions/life processes” (Herdman & Kamitsuru, 2014, p 22). “The risk diagnosis is supported by risk factors that increase the vulnerability of a client, family, group, or community to an unhealthy event” (Herdman & Kamitsuru, 2014, p 26). Defining characteristics and related factors are observable cues and circumstances or influences that have some type of relationship with the nursing diagnosis that may contribute to a health problem. Identification of related factors allows nursing interventions to be implemented to address the underlying cause of a nursing diagnosis (Herdman & Kamitsuru, 2014, p 26).

evidence while also knowing the client as part of clinical reasoning that informs client specific diagnoses (Cappelletti, Engel, & Prentice, 2014).

The nursing diagnoses that are used throughout this book are taken from North American Nursing Diagnosis Association—International (Herdman & Kamitsuru, 2014). The complete nursing diagnosis list is on the inside front cover of this text, and it can also be found on the EVOLVE website that accompanies this text. The diagnoses used throughout this text are listed in alphabetical order by the diagnostic concept. For example, impaired wheelchair mobil- ity is found under mobility, not under wheelchair or impaired (Herdman & Kamitsuru, 2014).

The holistic assessment of the client helps determine the type of diagnosis that follows. For example, if during the assessment a client is noted to have unsteady gait and balance disturbance and states, “I’m concerned I will fall while walking down my stairs,” but has not fallen previously, then the client would be identified as having a “risk” nursing diagnosis.

Once the diagnosis is determined, the next step is to deter- mine related factors and defining characteristics. The process for formulating a nursing diagnosis with related factors and defining characteristics follows. A client may have many nursing and medical diagnoses, and determining the priority with which each should be addressed requires clinical reason- ing and application of knowledge.

Formulating a Nursing Diagnosis with Related Factors and Defining Characteristics A working nursing diagnosis may have two or three parts. The two-part system consists of the nursing diagnosis and the “related to” (r/t) statement: “Related factors are factors that appear to show some type of patterned relationship with the nursing diagnosis: such factors may be described as ante- cedent to, associated with, relating to, contributing to, or abetting” (Herdman & Kamitsuru, 2014).

The two-part system is often used when the defining char- acteristics, or signs and symptoms identified in the assess- ment, may be obvious to those caring for the client.

The three-part system consists of the nursing diagnosis, the r/t statement, and the defining characteristics, which are “observable cues/inferences that cluster as manifestations of an actual or wellness nursing diagnosis” (Herdman & Kamitsuru, 2014).

Some nurses refer to the three-part diagnostic statement as the PES system:

P (problem)—The nursing diagnosis label: a concise term or phrase that represents a pattern of related cues. The nursing diagnosis is taken from the official NANDA- I list.

E (etiology)—“Related to” (r/t) phrase or etiology: related cause or contributor to the problem.

S (symptoms)—Defining characteristics phrase: symptoms that the nurse identified in the assessment.

D. Analyze Interpret the Subjective Symptoms (What the Client Has Stated) • “Difficulty breathing when walking short distances” =

exertional discomfort: a defining characteristic of Activity intolerance

• “Heart feels like it is racing” = abnormal heart rate response to activity: a defining characteristic of Activity intolerance

• “Tired all the time” = verbal report of weakness: a defining characteristic of Activity intolerance

Interpret the Objective Symptoms (Observable Information) • Continually wringing his hands = extraneous movement,

hand/arm movements: a defining characteristic of Anxiety • Looking out the window = poor eye contact, glancing

about: a defining characteristic of Anxiety • Heart rate = 110 beats per minute

E. Select the Nursing Diagnosis Label In Section II, look up dyspnea (difficulty breathing) or dys- rhythmia (abnormal heart rate or rhythm), chosen because they are high priority, and you will find the nursing diagnosis Activity intolerance listed with these symptoms. Is this diagnosis appropriate for this client?

To validate that the diagnosis Activity intolerance is appropriate for the client, turn to Section III and read the NANDA-I definition of the nursing diagnosis Activity intol- erance: “Insufficient physiological or psychological energy to endure or complete required or desired daily activities” (Herdman & Kamitsuru, 2014, p 225). When reading the definition, ask, “Does this definition describe the symptoms demonstrated by the client?” “Is any more assessment infor- mation needed?” “Should I take his blood pressure or take an apical pulse rate?” If the appropriate nursing diagnosis has been selected, the definition should describe the condition that has been observed.

The client may also have defining characteristics for this particular diagnosis. Are the client symptoms that you

Health Promotion Nursing Diagnosis. A clinical judg- ment concerning motivation and desire to increase well- being and to actualize human health potential that may be expressed by a readiness to enhance specific health behav- iors or health state. Health promotion responses may exist in an individual, family, group, or community (Herdman & Kamitsuru, 2014, p 22). Health promotion is different from prevention in that health promotion focuses on being as healthy as possible, as opposed to preventing a disease or problem. The difference between health promotion and disease prevention is that the reason for the health behavior should always be a positive one. With a health promotion diagnosis, the outcomes and interventions should be focused on enhancing health.

Example of a Health Promotion Nursing Diagnosis. Readiness for enhanced Nutrition aeb expresses willingness to change eating pattern and eat healthier foods. Note: This is a two-part nursing diagnosis.

Application and Examples of Making a Nursing Diagnosis When the assessment is complete, identify common patterns/ symptoms of response to actual or potential health problems from the assessment and select an appropriate nursing diag- nosis label using clinical reasoning skills. Use the steps with Case Study 1. (The same steps can be followed using an actual client assessment in the clinical setting or in a student assessment.) A. Highlight or underline the relevant symptoms (defining

characteristics). As you review your assessment informa- tion, ask: Is this normal? Is this an ideal situation? Is this a problem for the client? You may go back and validate information with the client.

B. Make a list of the symptoms (underlined or highlighted information).

C. Cluster similar symptoms. D. Analyze/interpret the symptoms. (What do these symp-

toms mean or represent when they are together?) E. Select a nursing diagnosis label from the NANDA-I list

that fits the appropriate defining characteristics and nursing diagnosis definition.

Case Study 1—An Older Client with Breathing Problems

A. Underline the Symptoms (Defining Characteristics) A 73-year-old man has been admitted to the unit with a diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). He states that he has “difficulty breathing when walking short distances.” He also states that his “heart feels like it is racing” (heart rate is 110 beats per minute) at the same time. He states that he is “tired all the time,” and while talking to you about

be appropriate for the individual client. If they are not appro- priate, the nurse should develop and write an r/t statement that is appropriate for the client. For the client from Case Study 1, a two-part statement could be made here:

Problem = Activity Intolerance Etiology = r/t imbalance between oxygen supply and demand

It was already determined that the client had Activity intolerance. With the respiratory symptoms identified from the assessment, imbalance between oxygen supply and demand is appropriate.

Defining Characteristics Phrase The defining characteristics phrase is the third part of the three-part diagnostic system, and it consists of the signs and symptoms that have been gathered during the assessment phase. The phrase “as evidenced by” (aeb) may be used to connect the etiology (r/t) with the defining characteristics. The use of identifying defining characteristics is similar to the process that the health care provider uses when making a medical diagnosis. For example, the health care provider who observes the following signs and symptoms—diminished inspiratory and expiratory capacity of the lungs, complaints of dyspnea on exertion, difficulty in inhaling and exhaling deeply, and sometimes chronic cough—may make the medical diagnosis of COPD. This same process is used to identify the nursing diagnosis of Activity intolerance.

Put It All Together: Writing the Three-Part Nursing Diagnosis Statement Problem—Choose the label (nursing diagnosis) using the

guidelines explained previously. A list of nursing diagnosis labels can be found in Section II and on the inside front cover.

Etiology—Write an r/t phrase (etiology). These can be found in Section II.

Symptoms—Write the defining characteristics (signs and symptoms), or the “as evidenced by” (aeb) list. A list of the signs and symptoms associated with each nursing diagno- sis can be found in Section III.

Case Study 1—73-Year-Old Male Client with COPD (Continued) Using the information from the earlier case study/example, the nursing diagnostic statement would be as follows:

Problem—Activity intolerance Etiology—r/t imbalance between oxygen supply and demand Symptoms—Verbal reports of fatigue, exertional dyspnea

(“difficulty breathing when walking”), and abnormal heart rate response to activity (“racing heart”), heart rate 110 beats per minute.

Therefore, the nursing diagnostic statement for the client with COPD is Activity intolerance r/t imbalance between

identified in the list of defining characteristics (e.g., verbal report of fatigue, abnormal heart rate response to activity, exertional dyspnea)?

Another way to use this text and to help validate the diagnosis is to look up the client’s medical diagnosis in Section II. This client has a medical diagnosis of COPD. Is Activity Intolerance listed with this medical diagnosis? Con- sider whether the nursing diagnosis makes sense given the client’s medical diagnosis (in this case, COPD). There may be times when a nursing diagnosis is not directly linked to a medical diagnosis (e.g., ineffective Coping) but is neverthe- less appropriate given nursing’s holistic approach to the client/family.

The process of identifying significant symptoms, cluster- ing or grouping them into logical patterns, and then choosing an appropriate nursing diagnosis involves diagnostic reason- ing (critical thinking) skills that must be learned in the process of becoming a nurse. This text serves as a tool to help the learner in this process.
