Purpose: This study aimed to identify nursing interventions captured in patients with stroke by Korean nursing students for the categorization of nursing care tailored to the characteristics of stroke patients.Methods: To identify nursing interventions, a descriptive data analysis was conducted using case scenarios written by nursing students during clinical practice in rehabilitation care settings. The case scenarios were analyzed using the standard terminology classification system, nursing interventions classification (NIC), to identify and categorize interventions for patients with stroke.Results: As the result of analysis, we identified 10 most frequent NIC interventions. The most frequent NIC intervention was vital signs monitoring (N=244, 8.6%). The 89 nursing interventions were classified into 7 domains and 24 classes of the NIC system.Conclusion: The results of this study can be used as a basis for a list of nursing interventions tailored to the characteristics of patients with stroke and furthermore calculating nursing fees through the analysis of nursing interventions for these patients.
