The Role of
Standardized
Terminology and
Language in
Informatics
Learning Outcomes
1. Understand what standardized
healthcare terminology is and why
it is important to nursing.
2. Describe the American Nurses
Association (ANA) recognition
criteria established for recognizing
standardized terminologies.
Learning Outcomes
3. Describe each of the ANA
recognized terminologies and the
benefits of use when implemented
within an electronic healthcare
record.
4. Discuss standardized terminologies
used for the different parts of the
nursing process and their
similarities and differences.
Learning Outcomes
5. Define the different types of
terminology structures, such as a
classification system (e.g. NANDA,
NIC, NOC) versus a reference
terminology (ICNP, SNOMED-CT).
6. Demonstrate how standard
terminologies facilitate the use of
evidence-based practice and
decision-support rules.
Learning Outcomes
7. Illustrate how using standardized
healthcare terminologies correlates
to the U.S. meaningful use criteria.
8. Identify the benefits of using
structured terminologies within
electronic healthcare records.
Standardized Terminology
• Structured and controlled languages
that have been developed and
approved by an authoritative body
Healthcare Terminology Standards
• Designed to enable and support
widespread interoperability and for
the purpose of sharing information
• Essential to the widespread
implementation of EHRs
Meaningful Use
• The goal is to exchange clinical
structured data in a manner that is
accurate and complete to improve
client care in a cost-efficient way.
Terminology Definitions
• Concepts
• Codes
• Clinical terminology-enables the
capture of data at the level of detail
necessary for patient care
documentation and is used to
describe health conditions
Terminology and Nursing
• Need a standardized nursing
language that is common to all
nurses
Languages and Classifications
• Billing codes set by HIPAA
• International Classification of
Disease (ICD) developed by World
Health Organization
• Current Procedural Terminology
(CPT) developed by American
Medical Association
Clinical Terminology
• Unified Medical Language System
(UMLS) developed by National
Library of Medicine
Clinical Terminology
• American Nurses Association recognizes
terminology for use by nurses
– Clinical Care Classification (CCC)
– North American Nursing Diagnosis
Association International (NANDA-I)
– Nursing Intervention Classification (NIC)
– Nursing Outcome Classification (NOC)
– Omaha System
– SNOMED CT
SNOWMED CT
• Globally recognized terminology
• Promotes evidence-based practice
• Undergoes review process to keep
up to date
LOINC
• Logical Observation Identifiers,
Names, and Codes
• Laboratory and clinician observations
terminology
• Nursing content found in one domain
Clinical Care Classification System
• Design based on six steps of nursing
process
• 182 diagnostic concepts
• Subcategories represent
interventions, procedures,
treatments, and activities
International Classification of
Nursing Practice
• Contains diagnoses, actions, and
outcomes
TABLE 15–9 ICNP Axes With
Examples
NANDA International
• Was the first nursing terminology
recognized by ANA
• Can be actual or potential health
problem
• Contains nursing diagnoses defined
by signs and symptoms
Nursing Interventions
Classifications
• Describe interventions used in
nursing care
• Seven domains of interventions
• Can be used in an electronic health
record
Nursing Outcomes Classifications
• Describe outcomes related to
nursing interventions
• Seven domains of outcomes
• Can be used in an electronic health
record
Omaha System
• Research-based taxonomy
• Assessment component—Problem
Classification Scheme
• Intervention component—
Intervention Scheme
• Outcomes component—Problem
Rating Scale for Outcomes
PeriOperative Nursing Data Set
• Developed by Association of
periOperative Registered Nurses
(AORN)
• Composed of nursing diagnoses,
interventions, and outcomes
Benefits of Implementation
• Client-specific benefits
– Decreased costs
– Increased quality
– Improved outcomes
– Improved safety
Benefits of Implementation
• Provider/Nursing Benefits
– Complete access to data
– Increased efficiency
– Increased accuracy
– Increased effectiveness
– Improvement in client care
Benefits of Implementation
• Organizational
– Decreased costs
– Decision support
– Outcome measurement
– Data mining
Future Directions
• Clinical Observations Recording and
Encoding (CORE) developed by
National Library of Medicine will be
used.
• Health information technology will
increase communication between
provider and client.
