Use of NIC and NOC nursing care in the standard units
VACULČÍKOVÁ, Jitka
The thesis is focused on the up-to-date issues of application of NIC and NOC to nursing care at standard wards. Implementation of unified nursing language is a great challenge for Czech nursing. Application of unified professional terminology and standardized electronic data improves effectiveness of cooperation between health care staff from different facilities and develops nursing statistic registers, which are useful for development of research in nursing care and substantially improve the quality of nursing care in heath care facilities. This thesis is a part of research grant project implemented by the Department of Nursing of the Faculty of Health Care and Social Studies of the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice, GAJU JU 079/2010/S, called Application of conceptual model and classification systems to nursing documentation. In the theoretical part we map the basic theses, principles and novelties of development, classification systems, particularly from foreign literature. We set four basic goals before the research, focused on application of classification systems to standard departments, on the aspects affecting introduction of classification systems to standard departments, elaboration of proposals and solution of application of classification systems and verification of application of classification systems to standard departments. The research was implemented in cooperation with the following South Bohemian workplaces: České Budějovice Hospital, Český Krumlov Hospital, Jindřichův Hradec Hospital, Prachatice Hospital, Strakonice Hospital, Tábor Hospital, and Písek Hospital. The empiric part was based on qualitative-quantitative method. We chose the techniques of document content analysis and semi structured interview. The quantitative research was based on questionnaire research. We examined the diagnostic-nursing management from selected documents from the involved hospitals by means of content analysis. We conducted interviews with head nurses and we particularly focused on the spheres of nursing documentation topics and diagnostic classification systems. Three research questions were linked to the interviews. The interviews were interpreted in the form of thought maps. The questionnaire research was designed for general nurses from standard surgical and internal wards. Four hypotheses were related to the questionnaire research. The quantitative data were processed in statistic form; we used frequency tables and also worked with the chi-square test of compliance. A basic nursing diagnostic module according to NANDA-I, NIC and NOC, which has been presented to nurses ? professionals from practice ? for testing is the output of the thesis. Nursing specialists were informed on the content analysis results at the 3rd South Bohemian Conference of non doctoral health care workers in České Budějovice.
