1.

Summary Introduction

To answer:

Match the following descriptions to the suitable middle-range theory.

Introduction:

The aim of nursing theory is to predict (prescribing nursing care), describe, and explain the nursing phenomenon. Theories suggest well-established reasons for why the health care providers make specific interventions to predict the behavior of the patient. Clinical experience and knowledge are the results of expertise in nursing.

Theories are classified into five types, based on their goals and abstractions. This includes grand theory, middle-range theory, practice theory, descriptive theory, and prescriptive theory.

Middle-range theories address particular event and reflect practice like clinical, administration, and teaching. The middle-range theories focus on nursing concepts in the specific field. This includes social support, uncertainty, quality of life, incontinence, and caring.
