Abstract

Nurses have performed their nursing practice according to the standard guidelines such as NANDA, NIC, and NOC, and recorded the information on nursing process into EMR system. In particular, NANDA, nursing diagnosis taxonomy, has difficulty expressing nursing diagnosis in detail because it represents abstract concepts of nursing diagnosis. So, the hospitals in KOREA have developed and used the list of nursing diagnosis on their own without referring the international standard terminologies, and it caused the delay of computerization of nursing records. Therefore, we proposed a ontology development methodology on nursing diagnosis based on NANDA and SNOMED-CT. The developed ontology, systematically developed with the frequently used nursing diagnosis terminologies in each hospital, based on the proposed methodology enables knowledge expansion and interoperable exchange of nursing records between EMR systems. We developed an ontology using the 112 nursing diagnosis terms defined by extracting and refining information on nursing diagnosis recorded in Kyungpook National University Hospital. We also confirmed the content validity and the usefulness of the developed ontology through expert assessment and experiment.

간호사는 NANDA, NIC, NOC과 같은 간호과정의 표준 가이드라인에 따라 간호 실무를 수행하고, 간호과정에 대한 정보를 전자의무기록 시스템에 기록하고 있다. 특히, NANDA는 간호진단 분류체계로써 간호진단의 추상적인 개념을 나타내고 있어, 상세한 간호진단 내용의 표현에 어려움이 있다. 그로 인해, 국내 병원에서는 자체적으로 간호진단 목록을 정의하여 사용하고 있으나, 이들은 표준이 적용되지 않아 간호기록의 전산화가 어려운 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 NANDA와 SNOMED-CT와 같은 표준 용어체계를 참조하여 간호진단 개념을 표현하기 위한 온톨로지로 구축 방법론을 제시한다. 제안한 방법은 각 병원 및 분야에서 주로 사용하는 간호진단 목록을 체계적으로 구축함으로써 의료정보 시스템 간의 상호운용이 가능하고 지식의 확장이 용이하도록 한다. 제안한 방법에 따라 경북대학교병원의 여성건강 간호기록 진술문을 분석하고, 간호진단 정보의 추출 및 정련을 통해 112개의 간호진단 용어를 생성하였다. 그리고 이 용어를 이용하여 여성건강 간호진단 온톨로지를 구축하였고, 전문가 평가 및 실험을 통해 개발한 온토롤지의 타당도와 실용성을 확인하였다.
