Revision History
Concept
A nursing intervention is the care and/or treatment that a nurse performs on the basis of expert judgment and clinical knowledge. It is part of the nursing process; interventions are determined on the basis of nursing diagnoses (indicated care problems) and on the basis of treatment goals. In the home care situation, after instruction, some actions can also be performed by the patient themselves or by a caregiver. In the right context, the concept can describe historical, future and advised nursing interventions.
Purpose
Nursing interventions are an essential part of the nursing process. A nursing intervention is recorded to document nursing actions and to inform other healthcare providers. In this way, optimal nursing and continuity of care can be facilitated.

1 | A nursing intervention is a treatment carried out by a nurse based on an expert opinion and clinical knowledge for the benefit of the person requesting healthcare. The intervention is targeted towards a certain problem (diagnosis) and has a predetermined healthcare result. It is possible to build a hierarchy of nursing interventions (where one intervention is part of another). |

Instructions
For the nursing domain: when two parties use different classification systems, the SNOMED CT based Dutch nursing problem list is used for exchange of information, so that data becomes comparable and interchangeable. A mapping table is available from the Dutch nursing problem list to Omaha System, NANDA-I and ICF.
- “Interval": for an implemented set of interventions, an instantiation of the zib can consist of a main intervention with its own end and start date. The sub-interventions that fall under the main intervention can be considered as their own instantiations of the zib. It is customary to link them to each other in the implementation/information standard. The concept of “Interval” is not explicitly modeled for performed sets of interventions because an interval applies only to a planned set of interventions. The instantiations of the partial interventions have then already taken place;
- “Frequency": for an executed series of interventions, an instantiation of the zib may consist of a main intervention with its own end and start date. The partial interventions covered by the main intervention can be considered own instantiations of the zib. It is customary to link them to each other in the implementation/information standard. The concept of “Frequency” is not explicitly modeled for performed sets of interventions because an interval applies only to a planned set of interventions. The instantiations of the partial interventions have then already taken place;
- “Start Date” and ‘End Date’: based on the Start Date and End Date, it is not always possible to distinguish between interventions that have yet to be implemented, that are ongoing, that have been completed, or that were instantaneous. In the implementation/information standard this distinction should be made, for example via a status field (the expectation is then that a status field is present which can be used in the translation from the zib to the implementation as for example in FHIR):
- For an implemented (series of) intervention(s), a Start Date without End Date can mean that the intervention(series) is still ongoing, or that it is a momentarily implemented intervention. This requires additional status entry (as described above);
- A planned one-time intervention has at least a Start Date and optionally an End Date. Frequency and Interval are absent in this case. Additional status entry is not needed here (but can be clarifying to send along to indicate that the intervention is still open). It is recommended to add the End Date when it is known;
- A scheduled series of interventions has at least a Start Date and an Interval or Frequency, and optionally an End Date. If the Start Date is in the past, and the End Date is in the future or absent, then the sequence is in execution. If the End Date is in the past, then the sequence is closed. Additional status entry is not needed here (but can be clarifying to send along to indicate that the intervention is still open). It is recommended to add the End Date when it is known.
- For an implemented (series of) intervention(s), a Start Date without End Date can mean that the intervention(series) is still ongoing, or that it is a momentarily implemented intervention. This requires additional status entry (as described above);

To exchange information based on health and care information models, additional, more technical specifications are required.
Not every environment can handle the same technical specifications. For this reason, there are several types of technical specifications:
- HL7® version 3 CDA compatible specifications, available through the Nictiz ART-DECOR® environment
