Abstract

The objective of this study was to develop nursing diagnosis statements based on the clinical indicators regarding the Basic Human Necessities among adolescent inpatients, using the International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP®). This exploratorydescriptive study was performed at a pediatric clinic of a teaching hospital. The sample consisted of clinical nurses and faculty working at the clinic. Following a literature review, 33 necessities were considered, and 484 empirical indicators were identified regarding adolescent inpatients, which were then validated, resulting in 319 indicators: 200 for psychobiological necessities, 116 for psychosocial necessities, and 3 forpsychospiritual necessities. Next, 60 nursing diagnosis statements were validated using the ICNP®. In conclusion, the development of diagnosis statements for adolescent inpatients helps to meet their needs more specifically, as well as advancing the implementation of nursing care systematization in the studied hospital.
