ICNP(r) provides standardized terms and codes for terms in two classifications that can be used to compose or create pre-coordinated concepts to represent observations and procedures, specifically, patient problems/nursing diagnoses, nursing interventions including those focused on assessment and actual or expected (goal) outcomes.
