The North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA) International has updated its taxonomy of nursing diagnoses to include new diagnoses and revised existing ones. Here are some of the new NANDA nursing diagnoses:
- Risk for Complicated Grief: This diagnosis is for individuals who are at risk of developing complicated grief, which is a prolonged and intense emotional response to the loss of a loved one.
- Risk for Disrupted Family Processes: This diagnosis is for families who are at risk of experiencing disrupted family processes, such as conflict, communication breakdown, or role changes, which can impact their ability to function effectively.
- Risk for Delayed Development: This diagnosis is for children who are at risk of delayed development, including cognitive, social, or emotional development, due to various factors such as poverty, neglect, or lack of access to healthcare.
- Risk for Ineffective Community Coping: This diagnosis is for communities that are at risk of ineffective coping mechanisms, such as inadequate resources, lack of social support, or ineffective communication, which can impact their ability to respond to crises or challenges.
- Risk for Ineffective Self-Health Management: This diagnosis is for individuals who are at risk of ineffective self-health management, including poor health habits, lack of knowledge about health conditions, or inadequate self-care, which can impact their overall health and well-being.
- Risk for Moral Distress: This diagnosis is for healthcare professionals who are at risk of experiencing moral distress, which is a feeling of discomfort or unease that arises from being unable to act in accordance with their personal values or principles.
- Risk for Spiritual Distress: This diagnosis is for individuals who are at risk of spiritual distress, including feelings of disconnection from their spiritual beliefs or practices, which can impact their overall well-being and quality of life.
- Risk for Unstable Blood Sugar: This diagnosis is for individuals who are at risk of unstable blood sugar levels, including those with diabetes or prediabetes, who may experience fluctuations in blood sugar levels due to various factors such as medication, diet, or lifestyle.
- Risk for Unstable Blood Pressure: This diagnosis is for individuals who are at risk of unstable blood pressure, including those with hypertension or hypotension, who may experience fluctuations in blood pressure due to various factors such as medication, diet, or lifestyle.
