The paper presents a review of three data sets(Uniform Hospital Discharge Data Set, Nursing Minimum Data Set, and Nursing Management Minimum Data Set) and six major nursing classifications(the North American Nursing Diagnoses Association Taxonomy I, Omaha System, Nursing Interventions Classification, Nursing Intervention Lexicon and Taxonomy, Nursing Outcome Classification, Nursing Outcomes Classification, and Classification of Patient Outcome). The reviewed data sets and nursing classifications were different from each other in the purpose, structure, and user. Nursing Interventions Classification and Nursing Outcomes Classification were linked to North American Nursing Diagnosis Association, but others not. The data set and nursing classifications need to be linked to other data sets and classifications.
