Which standardized nursing terminology is comprised of (1) a problem classification scheme, (2) an intervention scheme, and (3) a problem rating scale for outcomes?

• A. ICNP
• B. PNDS
• C. NANDA-I
• D. OMAHA

Answer: (D)

The Omaha System is built around three integrated parts that align problem identification, actions, and measurement of impact. It includes a Problem Classification Scheme to categorize client issues, an Intervention Scheme to document the specific actions taken, and a Problem Rating Scale for Outcomes to quantify change in knowledge, behavior, and status related to those problems after care. This triple structure supports standardized documentation across settings and enables consistent data collection and outcome analysis. Other terminologies focus on diagnoses or interventions in different formats and do not combine these three components with a dedicated outcomes rating scale in the same integrated way, so the Omaha System best fits this description.
