ICNP (International Classification for Nursing Practice)
The ICNP
provides a structured and defined vocabulary as well as a classification for
nursing and a framework into which existing vocabularies and classifications
can be cross-mapped to enable comparison of nursing data. Its primary elements
are nursing phenomena, nursing interventions and nursing outcomes. The INCP
strives to establish a common language for describing nursing practice and
improve communication. It also helps describe nursing care of people
(individuals, families, and communities) in a variety of settings, both
institutional and non-institutional, enables comparison of nursing data across
clinical populations, settings, geographic areas, and time. Furthermore it
demonstrate or project trends in the provision of nursing treatments and care
and the allocation of resources to patients according to their needs based on
nursing diagnoses. Lastly it stimulate nursing research through links to data
available in nursing information systems and health information systems and
also provides data about nursing practice in order to influence health policy
making (Warren & Coenen,1998).
The Omaha system is a research-based, standardized
clinical documentation language (taxonomy) designed to meet the needs of community
health nurses and other community-based health providers. It includes all three
critical components of care (diagnoses, interventions and outcomes) and was
specifically designed to facilitate the statistical analysis of data.
ABC codes are five-digit Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act (HIPAA) compliant alpha codes that are used by licensed or non-licensed
healthcare practitioners on standard healthcare claim forms.
