Interventions related to fluid and electrolyte balance.
Validation of 15 fluid and electrolyte nursing interventions is a significant contribution to the development of a classification of nursing interventions, as well as the development of nursing science. Through this validation process, experts have asserted that nurses do make independent decisions and practice autonomously in the area of caring for patients with fluid and electrolyte problems. Further research is needed to carry on the work begun in this study. The enthusiasm with which this project was received by the expert raters reflects the need for nursing to reaffirm this area of practice.
