NANDA Nursing Diagnoses are standardized statements developed by the North American Nursing Diagnosis Association to identify and describe patients’ actual or potential health problems. They guide nurses in assessing patient needs, planning care, and implementing interventions using a structured framework. Each diagnosis typically includes a problem, its related factors, and defining characteristics, and can be classified as actual, risk, or health-promotion diagnoses. This system improves communication among healthcare providers, supports documentation, and enhances patient-centered, evidence-based nursing care.
