Running Head: APPLYING STANDARDIZED TERMINOLOGIES IN PRACTICE  1 Applying Standardized Terminologies in Practice  Kandace Wood Chamberlain College of Nursing NR 512 May 2015 APPLYING STANDARDIZED TERMINOLOGIES IN PRACTICE  2 Applying Standardized Terminologies in Practice Health industry has been in procedure of following evidence dependent interventions. It has lead towards standardization on mode of the communication within classification of the diagnosis, applied interventions along with expected results. In such a standardization process, NANDA, NIC as well as NOC elements have most generally been utilized and also effective systems. Purpose of this research has been to give the brief overview about those standardized terminologies like they associate to the patient having the congestive heart failure, identify elements of the NANDA, NIC along with NOC and also describe data, information, knowledge as well as wisdom utilized in this process. Applying standardized Terminologies in Practice North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA) gives the clear outline on how nurses must diagnose several diseases. Nursing outcome classification (NOC) gives measurement scales as well as indictors towards being utilized in measuring progress of the patient. As per (Johnson, 2012), Nursing outcome classification allows nurse for maintaining several patient results in separate environments over a period of time. Several interventions associating to the particular diagnosis have in addition been given in Nursing Intervention Classification (NIC). Nursing Intervention Classification in addition has particular activities, which have been to be applied depending on patient’s requirements and also rest of the existing situations. Following has been example of how all of above standardized terminologies may be implemented in the patient having the congestive heart failure. APPLYING STANDARDIZED TERMINOLOGIES IN PRACTICE  3 Congestive heart failure has been the situation in which heart has been unable to pump oxygen rich blood towards all parts of body (Garca, 2010). Heart failure may be resulted through number of things, which cause the enhanced requirement for giving the oxygenated blood towards body tissues that causes weakening of heart along with heart failure. North American Nursing Diagnosis Association may be utilized for collecting the compulsory information for deciding most proper intervention (Johnson, 2012). 1 st consideration must be determination of effectiveness of the self heath management. It would involve determination of type of diet the patient takes along with degree of exercising along with knowledge of how several activities affect heart.  Further consideration might be determination of fluid levels of the body. It could be followed trough examination of body as well as patient’s regulatory systems that affects fluid level of the body. Further step would afterwards be evaluation of disease status of patient. Rest of the diseases can have the negative impact to capability of heart for pumping blood to several parts of body along with that step would allow nurse for discovering which disease has been resulting the negative effect to heart. Evaluation of family status would reveal any conflicts, which can be causing heart failure when at similar time gives the understanding about degree of effectiveness of the therapeutic regimen management. By such data, nurse would be in the position of deciding patient’s present status along with aid in deciding level of results, which has been needed for managing disease effectively.
