Mapping analysis of application of nursing interventions classification in pediatric cardiology nursing docu-mentation / 中华护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the feasibility of nursing interventions classification in pediatric cardiology,and to provide references for standardizing nursing terms and promoting its clinical application in the future. Methods We collected nursing records in department of cardiology in a pediatric hospital from September 1st,2016,to November 31st,2016,and used mapping method to find out the conceptual congruence between nursing interventions classification (NIC-6th) and nursing records. We analyzed characteristics of standardized nursing interventions using dimensions of time and difficulty. Results Totally 71 nursing interventions were mapped from 4191 independent nursing statements,which involved 7 domains. Of the 4191 statements,3046 (95.33%) were labelled as "perfect fit",142 (4.44%) as "partial fit",and 7 (0.23%) as "not fit at all". The average difficulty of nursing interventions was 1.77 and the average time was 2.11. Conclusion Nursing interventions classification can describe daily nurs-ing activities in pediatric cardiology and can be used as standard nursing language in China. The extracted nursing interventions demonstrate certain specificity of specialty nursing,but still have defects. The results of this study can be used for analysis of staff performance.
