Newborn Physiological Immaturity

BACKGROUND: Most standardized nursing care plans for healthy neonates include multiple nursing diagnoses to reflect nurses' judgments on the infant's status; however scientific literature concerning this issue is scarce. Newborn physiological immaturity is a concept in the ATIC terminology (architecture, terminology, interface, information, nursing [infermeria], and knowledge [coneixement]) to represent the natural status of vulnerability of the healthy neonate. PURPOSE: To identify the essential attributes of the concept and provide its conceptual and operational definition, using the Wilsonian approach. FINDINGS: The concept under analysis embeds a natural cluster of vulnerabilities and environmental interactions that enhance the evolving maturation process.IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: The use of this diagnosis may simplify the process of charting the nursing care plans and reduce time needed for documentation while maintaining the integrity of the information.IMPLICATIONS FOR RESEARCH: Consistent development and use of nursing concepts is essential for knowledge building. Studies on the actual use of nursing diagnoses are needed to inform decision making.
