Title: NANDA-I Syndromes: where are we and where to go?

Presenter: Dr Joana Romeiro, Pos-doctoral Fellow at Integral Human Development Program, PhD, RN, MSc.

Presentation description: The aim of this webinar is to provide a critical analysis of syndromes as currently listed in NANDA-I Taxonomy II.

NANDA-I syndromes seem to meet the multidimensionality and complexity of human responses to a health-disease event or condition. Only 12 syndromes are listed in the list of NANDA-I nursing diagnoses. The majority have a low level of evidence and seem to be poorly developed. Since diagnosis is critical in the nursing process and a guide to nurses´ clinical reasoning and nursing practice, the development of nursing diagnoses such as syndromes is needed. A holistic assessment of the patients´ needs seems to be provided by these diagnoses and might allow a more proper look to the whole and a patient-centered care. In addition, suggestions that are provided could raise the accuracy of NANDA-I nursing diagnoses, increase quality of nursing practice, but also provide changes in nursing education as curricula should promote a holistic critical thinking and implementation of an advanced care.
