title: [Cross mapping of nursing diagnoses in infant health using the international classification of nursing practice].
abstract: This was a descriptive, retrospective study, with a quantitative method, with the aim of analyzing the nursing diagnoses contained in the records of children of 0 to 36 months of age who attended infant health nursing consults. A documentary analysis and the cross-mapping technique were used. One hundred eighty-eight different nursing diagnoses were encountered, of which 33 (58.9%) corresponded to diagnoses contained in the Nomenclature of Nursing Diagnoses and Interventions and 23 (41.1%) were derived from ICNP® Version 1.0. Of the 56 nursing diagnoses, 43 (76.8%) were considered to be deviations from normalcy. It was concluded that the infant health nursing consults enabled the identification of situations of normalcy and abnormality, with an emphasis on the diagnoses of deviations from normalcy. Standardized language favors nursing documentation, contributing to the care of the patient and facilitating communication between nurses and other health professionals.
