D
Feedback:
A group of nurse researchers and educators at NANDA has maintained a list of acceptable nursing diagnoses. These words or terms are actually the diagnostic labels or categories on which the entire client-oriented nursing diagnostic statement is built. The wording of the phrases is divided into three specific components, not two components. The nomenclature, criteria, and categories developed by NANDA are commonly referred to as a nursing diagnosis. It does not include written guidelines to differentiate the medical diagnosis from the nursing diagnosis.
