2.1 Main purpose This International Standard specifies the characteristics of two categorial structures (4.2), and the minimal domain constraints (4.5) required for conformance, with the overall aim of supporting interoperability in the exchange of meaningful information between information systems in respect of nursing diagnoses and nursing actions. Categorial structures (4.2) for nursing diagnoses and nursing actions support interoperability by providing common frameworks with which to: a) analyse the features of different terminologies and to establish the nature of the relationship between them [3] – [8]; b) develop terminologies for representing nursing diagnoses and nursing actions [9] – [12]; c) develop terminologies that are able to be related to each other [3], [8], [13]; d) establish relationships between terminology models, information models and ontologies in the nursing domain [14] – [16]; There is early evidence that the categorial structure for nursing actions can be used as a framework for analyzing nursing practice [17] and for developing content of electronic nursing summaries [18].
