McCloskey: Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC), 3rd edition The 486 interventions in NIC (3rd Edition) are listed alphabetically and grouped for ease of use into thirty classes and seven domains in an updated taxonomy. Each intervention includes a label name, a definition, a set of activities to carry out the intervention, and background readings. The 3rd edition taxonomy includes one new domain (community),
and three new classes of interventions. The seven domains are physiological: basic, physiological: complex, behavioral, safety, family, health system, and community. Each intervention has a unique number (code). This edition includes 58 new and 98 revised interventions. As in previous editions, most of the interventions are for use with individuals but many are also useful with families (e.g., family integrity promotion). Several interventions useful with entire communities have been added to
the classification (e.g., community development; vehicle safety promotion: youth). The third edition also features updated and expanded examples of forms used by various agencies for NIC implementation, a new section on core interventions by nursing specialty, and updated linkages with the NANDA 1999-2000 diagnoses. The content in this book is also available on a single site multi-user
CD-ROM format allowing the information to be integrated into your database system and serve as an electronic compliment to the book.
The Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) is a comprehensive standardized classification of interventions that nurses perform. It is useful for clinical documentation, communication of care across settings, integration of data across
systems and settings, effectiveness research, productivity measurement, competency evaluation, reimbursement, and curricular design. The classification includes the interventions that nurses do on behalf of patients, both independent and collaborative interventions, both direct and indirect care. An intervention is defined as "any treatment, based upon clinical judgment and knowledge that a nurse performs to enhance patient/client outcomes." NIC can be used in all settings (from acute care
intensive care units, to home care, to hospice, to primary care) and all specialties (from critical care to ambulatory care and long-term care).
Johnson: Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC), 2nd edition The 2nd Edition of NOC
contains 260 outcomes listed in alphabetical order and grouped for ease of use into 7 domains and 29 classes in a taxonomic structure. The 7 domains are functional health, physiologic health, psychosocial health, health knowledge and behavior, perceived health, family health, and community health. Each outcome has a definition, a list of indicators that can be used to evaluate patient status in relation to the outcome, a five-point Likert scale to measure patient status, and a short list of
references used in the development of the outcome. The outcomes are developed for use across the care continuum and therefore can be used to follow patient outcomes throughout an illness episode or over an extended period of care.
The Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC) is a comprehensive, standardized classification of patient/client outcomes developed to evaluate the effects of nursing interventions. Standardized outcomes are necessary for documentation in electronic
records, for use in clinical information systems, and for the development of nursing knowledge and the education of professional nurses. An outcome is stated as a variable concept representing an individual, family, or community condition that is measurable along a continuum and responsive to nursing interventions. The outcomes are developed for use in all settings with all patient populations. NOC outcomes are for use with individuals, families, and communities.
Each outcome has a unique code number that facilitates the use of outcomes in computerized clinical information systems and the manipulation of data to answer questions about health care quality and effectiveness. The 2nd edition of NOC presents 70 new and 20 revised outcomes. Several family and community outcomes are included in the new family- and community-level domains. Expanded implementation examples and updates linkages with NANDA 1999-2000 diagnoses are also featured.
