Nursing Diagnoses: Definitions and Classification is the definitive guide to nursing diagnoses, as reviewed and approved by NANDA-I.

Each of the 235 diagnoses presented are supported by definitions as well as defining characteristics and related factors, or risk factors.

Each new and revised diagnosis is based on the latest global evidence, and approved by expert nurse diagnosticians, researchers, and educators.
