Current problems in nursing diagnoses and countermeasures / 中华医院管理杂志

ABSTRACT

At present, problems in nursing diagnoses include omission of important diagnoses, inexact diagnoses, irregular writing of diagnoses, unclear differentiation of what is primary from what is secondary in the ordering of diagnoses, improper classification of relevant factors, neglect of psychological and social problems, confusion of problems involving cooperation and potential problems, and lack of conformity between diagnoses and admission evaluation. Measures for solving these problems include change of concepts, improvement of the overall quality of the nursing personnel, enhancement of the awareness of quality, and reinforcement of assessment and guidance.
