This book is the first and only to provide linkages between all three recognized taxonomies based on linkage work done by the investigative teams at the University of Iowa. By linking diagnoses, outcomes, and interventions, this book provides a tool from which students can develop care plans for their patients, and by which institutions can track and quantify nursing care. The linkages can be used by clinicians, students, educators, researchers, and administrators in a wide variety of clinical, educational, and research venues. Four case studies with nursing care plans show application of these linkages.
Tabular format makes the information easily accessible and usable.
