Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was cross-mapping unique nursing statements which were identified in the nursing records of patients with six most common cancers in Korea with the standardized nursing languages of NANDA, NIC, NOC and ICNP. Method: The subjects were 72 nursing records which covered 1,502 admission days from August 1, 2003 to June 30, 2003. They were the records of the patients of six most common cancers who were treated at the six 3rd level general hospitals in Busan and Daegu. The unique nursing statements were identified by dividing the statements from the nursing records into the single statements according to their meanings. For cross-mapping, identified unique nursing statements were classified as 'Data(D)' for the subjective, objective data of the patients and the other data such as treatment, admission, discharge, and residence of patient, 'Problem(P)' for nursing problem or diagnosis defined by the nurse's decision, 'Intervention(I)' for nursing intervention for problem solving, and 'Outcome(O)' for patient reaction and results of the provided nursing interventions. Unique nursing statements classified to D, P, I, O were cross-napped by using Microsoft Excel 2000. The statements of D were cross-mapped with ICNP Nursing phenomena, P with NANDA nursing diagnosis and ICNP nursing phenomena, I with NIC and ICNP nursing intervention, and O with NOC and ICNP nursing phenomena Result: The results of this study were as follows. 1. Number of unique nursing statements were 506 in the records of lung cancer patients (18.12%), 480 in stomach cancer(17.19%), 458 in liver cancer(16.40%), 456 in colon cancer (16.33), 457 in breast cancer (16.36%) and 436 in cervix cancer (15.60%). 2. The range of percentage of cross-mapped unique nursing statements with the standardized nursing languages were as follows: P with NANDA nursing diagnosis $87.50{\sim}100%$, I with NIC $59.72{\sim}74.43$, O with NOC $61.05{\sim}72.64%$, and D, P, I and O with ICNP $60.92{\sim}69.95%$. 3. Number of the standardized nursing languages identified in this study were 21(12.66%) from 155 NANDA nursing diagnosis, 76(15.64%) from 486 NIC Nursing interventions, 54(17.47%) from 260 NOC nursing outcomes, and 343(13.03%) from ICNP 2,634. Conclusions: By the results of this study, NANDA, NIC, NOC and ICNP were found that they can be used as the language systems for nursing record and nursing information system for cancer patients. But, further study on the unique nursing statements which were not cross-mapped with the standardized nursing language systems will be necessary.
