Objective: to report the development of a software to support decision-making for the
selection of nursing diagnoses and interventions for children and adolescents,
based on the nomenclature of nursing diagnoses, outcomes and interventions of a
university hospital in Paraiba. Method: a methodological applied study based on software engineering, as proposed by
Pressman, developed in three cycles, namely: flow chart construction, development
of the navigation interface, and construction of functional expressions and
programming development. Result: the software consists of administrative and nursing process screens. The
assessment is automatically selected according to age group, the nursing diagnoses
are suggested by the system after information is inserted, and can be indicated by
the nurse. The interventions for the chosen diagnosis are selected by structuring
the care plan. Conclusion: the development of this tool used to document the nursing actions will contribute
to decision-making and quality of care.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
