Study Notes

Artificial Intelligence

AI involves computer systems that mimic human intelligence to perform tasks like understanding language and recognizing patterns.

Classification

Systematic arrangement of data or information into categories for easier understanding and analysis.

Clinical Care Classification (CCC)

A comprehensive nursing terminology framework that includes nursing diagnoses, interventions, and outcomes applicable in various settings.
Designed to assess and determine healthcare costs effectively.

De-identified Data

Data from which personal identifiers have been removed to protect patient privacy, allowing analysis without revealing identities.

Granularity

Refers to the level of detail that a term or phrase conveys.
Higher granularity indicates greater specificity in data capture.

Interface Terminology

Specialized terminology designed for communication between different health information systems.

International Classification of Nursing Practice (ICNP)

A standardized nursing terminology that captures diagnoses, interventions, and outcomes across various cultures and languages.
Promotes international understanding of nursing practices.

Logical Observation Identifiers Names Codes (LOINC)

Standardized naming system for lab tests and clinical measurements.
Expanded to include terminology useful for clinical care, outcomes management, and research purposes.

NANDA, NIC, AND NOC (NNN)

A framework incorporating nursing diagnoses (NANDA), interventions (NIC), and outcomes (NOC) to facilitate nursing practice and documentation.

Natural Language Processing (NLP)

A branch of artificial intelligence that equips computers to understand and process human language, enabling structured data extraction from unstructured text.

Nomenclature

The system of naming within a classification schema, representing the lowest tier of classification without inherent structure.

North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA)

Provides foundational nursing diagnoses for many recognized nursing terminologies developed by the American Nurses Association (ANA).

Nursing Information and Data Set Evaluation Center (NICSEC)

Established by the ANA to assess vendor implementation of nursing informatics systems using standardized terminologies.
Includes evaluation of clinical content and system characteristics.

Nursing Intervention Classification (NIC)

Developed to categorize nursing activities performed in daily practice, aiding in understanding nursing roles and functions.

Nursing Management Minimum Data Set (NMMDS)

Created to gather essential data helpful for nurse managers and healthcare executives in decision-making and administration.

Nursing Minimum Data Set (NMDS)

Comprises core data elements required for all patients receiving nursing care, promoting consistency and comparability in nursing documentation.

Nursing Outcome Classification (NOC)

A standardized classification system that encompasses patient outcomes associated with nursing interventions.

Omaha System

A research-based nursing taxonomy that integrates nursing problems, interventions, and an outcome evaluation scale supporting holistic care.

Ontology

The highest level of classification within a system, establishing a formal naming system for concepts and categories.

Outcomes Potentially Sensitive to Nursing (OPSN)

Medical diagnoses that reflect nursing contributions to patient outcomes, utilized for evaluating nurse-patient ratios in healthcare settings.
Examples include UTIs, pressure ulcers, pneumonia, and shock.

Perioperative Nursing Data Set (PNDS)

A standardized terminology specific to perioperative care, aiming to enhance visibility of patient issues to healthcare decision-makers.

Reference Terminology

A system of terminology used to standardize communication across healthcare providers and informatics systems.

Secondary Data Use

Involves analyzing existing nursing data to evaluate care effectiveness while ensuring consistent terminology for problems, interventions, and outcomes.

Systematic Nomenclature of Medical-Clinical Terms

A comprehensive system of medical terms used for consistently describing clinical information.

Taxonomy

A structured classification system that categorizes entities in a hierarchical manner for clearer understanding.

Standardized Terminology

Utilizes universally agreed definitions to ensure clarity and facilitate data exchange across information systems.
