Formulating a nursing diagnosis involves gathering comprehensive data about the patient's health status. This includes:
Assessment: Collecting and analyzing data about the patient's health status, including physical exams, patient history, and diagnostic tests. Diagnosis: Identifying the patient's health problems or potential issues based on the assessment data. Planning: Developing a care plan that outlines the nursing interventions and patient goals. Implementation: Carrying out the planned interventions. Evaluation: Assessing the effectiveness of the interventions and modifying the care plan as needed.
