Product information Supplement to NANDA International Nursing Diagnoses: Definitions and Classification 2021-2023 (12th edition)

NANDA-I supplement provides in-depth insights on current and upcoming nursing diagnoses

This supplement to the NANDA International Nursing Diagnoses: Definitions and Classification, 2021–2023 (12th Edition) is a succinct, companion to the comprehensive textbook by T. Heather Herdman, Shigemi Kamitsuru, and Camila Lopes. The 12th edition is the definitive guide on nursing diagnoses, as reviewed and approved by NANDA International (NANDA-I), the leading professional organization that develops, researches, disseminates, and refines nursing taxonomy.

This book is designed to give current users of the full text a “quick glance” into what is new in the latest edition and more in-depth information on key changes. Six introductory chapters provide insightful commentary on changes, including new nursing diagnoses, revisions to nursing diagnosis labels and diagnoses, and retired nursing diagnoses. The supplement also covers three types of clinical reasoning models—problem-focused nursing diagnosis, risk nursing diagnosis, and health promotion nursing diagnosis—which are enhanced by visual flow charts to give readers a better understanding of the essential steps required to make accurate diagnoses.

Key Features

  • Structured documentation for each of the 46 new diagnoses introduced to the 12th edition, including presentation of a model case, model case assessment, and a tabular overview of the diagnostic parameters, ultimate goal, outcome, and nursing actions related to the model case
  • Explanation of standardized terminology changes used in nursing diagnostic indicators, including defining characteristics, related factors, and risk factors
  • Discussion of conceptual issues the authors anticipate will require additional clarification in the upcoming 13th edition, including recommendations for modification

This must-have supplement enhances understanding, supports education, and facilitates implementation of important diagnostic changes in daily practice. All practitioners, including nursing students, professional nurses, nurse educators, nurse informaticists, and nurse administrators, who utilize the primary text will benefit from reading this companion book.

This book includes complimentary access to a digital copy on https://medone.thieme.com.

What is an e-book?

An e-book is an electronic edition of a printed book that is available as a file. The content does not differ from the printed edition of the book. Thieme offers electronic books in PDF and EPUB formats. For both formats, you need software to display the documents on your reading device. This software is not part of the e-book download.

What is the PDF format?
Adobe PDF format (Portable Document Format) is a standard format in MAC/PC area. Free programs for reading a PDF are available for all common operating systems (e.g. Windows, Mac OS, Linux) and for almost all e-book readers such as e-book readers, tablets or smartphones.

What is the EPUB format?
EPUB (electronic publication) is a standard format for e-books that enables dynamic adaptation of the text to the size of the display device. It is particularly well suited for displaying e-books on tablet PCs, smartphones, and e-book readers.
EPUBs can also be easily displayed on MACs/PCs via the free ADE (Adobe Digital Editions) software, for example.

Is an Internet connection required to read an e-book?
An Internet connection is required only to download the e-book to the reader. Once the download is complete, you can view and read the e-book without an Internet connection.

Are e-books copy-protected?
E-books from Thieme Publishing Group are provided with DRM (Digital Rights Management) protection from Vitalsource

On how many devices can I read the e-book?
You can read an e-book on up to six different (mobile) devices. These devices must be authorized with the same Adobe ID.

Can I exchange/return an e-book?
E-books are products that are not suitable for return due to their nature. Just like downloads of other electronic files (movies, music or software), e-books are excluded from the right of withdrawal. A return or exchange is therefore not possible.
