Table of Current ANA Recognized Standardized Nursing Terminologies
The American Nurses Association (ANA) in its 22 year experience with evaluating nursing terminologies recognized several different type of terminologies, among them minimum nursing data sets, nursing specific terminologies, interdisciplinary terminologies and a terminology useful by nurse practitioners for billing. Note that all the ANA recognized terminologies are integrated into the Unified Medical Language System.
All of the nursing specific and interdisciplinary terminologies have some ability to function as interface terminologies useful by clinicians for planning and documenting care. A few are also reference terminologies, or a terminology to which documentation is coded behind the scenes for use in higher level analysis.
Included at the end are two items that, although not ANA recognized, are part of the SNL world.
In each category, the terminologies are listed alphabetically.
D = Nursing Diagnosis or Problem
I = Intervention
O = Outcome
