About The Author

Lynda Juall Carpenito

Reflecting the challenges of ongoing rapid change in nursing, this Handbook of Nursing Diagnosis 15th edition (PDF) by Lynda Carpenito’s respected resource offers definitive guidance on nursing diagnosis, its role in the nursing process, and its application to clinical practice. Nursing diagnoses define the science and art of nursing; this vital book gives nurses-in-training the information they need for creative clinical nursing practice, from assessment criteria to specific interventions.

Highlights of the updated Fifteenth Edition:

  • A Nursing Diagnosis Index provides an at-a-glance, alphabetical reference that makes finding diagnoses quick and easy.
  • A comprehensive A-to-Z guide to current nursing diagnoses includes the most recent diagnoses approved by NANDA International.
  • “Carp’s Cues” appear throughout and consist of notes from the author to emphasize a particular principle of care, a controversial issue, or an ethical challenge.
  • Key Concepts and Interventions are grouped by specific population–older adult, child, maternal, and transcultural–to help clarify the differences between the client groups.
  • Nursing Interventions Classifications (NIC) and Nursing Outcomes Classifications (NOC) are listed for every NANDA-I diagnosis; NANDA-I diagnoses have been updated.
  • Author’s Notes and Errors in Diagnostic Statements help students understand the concept behind the diagnosis, differentiate one diagnosis from another, and avoid diagnostic errors.

The 15th edition is organized into three sections. Section 1 provides an alphabetical reference to nursing diagnoses, including the NANDA-I definition, and Section 2 focus organizes all the health promotion/wellness nursing diagnoses for individuals. Under each diagnosis, Author’s Notes will elaborate on the clinical usefulness of the diagnosis. Additional foundational knowledge is included in each diagnosis:

  • NANDA-I definition
  • Focused Assessment Criteria
  • Errors in Diagnostic Statements
  • Goals (NIC/NOC) with Rationale
  • Interventions for Special Population
  • Key Concepts & General Considerations
  • Maturational: infant/child, adolescent, adult, and older adult
  • Defining characteristics (emotional, physiologic, and cognitive)
  • Special Population Consideration (Geriatric, Pediatric, Maternal, and Transcultural)
  • Related factors including pathophysiologic, treatment-related, and situational (personal and environmental)

Lastly, section 3 covers Diagnostic Clusters, which present medical conditions with associated collaborative problems and nursing diagnoses, designed for easy reference in the clinical setting.
