title: Innovative nursing practice models and patient outcomes.
abstract: The definition of patient outcome measures has broadened from the traditional ones of mortality, morbidity, and disability to those that include quality of life, length of stay, health status, and patient satisfaction. Three models of innovative nursing practice in Arizona, New York, and Baltimore, are currently being evaluated in terms of these new outcome measures.
