Nursing diagnoses in clients with hematologic diseases: use of NANDA's Taxonomy I

The present paper aims to describe the most frequent nursing diagnoses found in a group of clients with hematologic diseases. Authors used the Taxonomy I proposed by the North American Nursing Diagnoses Association (NANDA) to guide this study. Data were collected from 14 clients. Authors identified 16 nursing diagnoses whose frequency were equal or higher to fifty percent. Other studies are needed to find a better definition of the diagnostic profile of these clients.
