A possible nursing diagnosis indicates a situation in which a problem could arise unless preventive action is taken. In addition, a possible diagnosis may state a hunch or intuition by the nurse that cannot be confirmed or eliminated until more data have been collected. A possible diagnosis is composed of the diagnostic label and related factors.
