Which term refers to any treatment based on clinical judgment and knowledge that a nurse performs to enhance patient client outcomes?

Outcome
Assessment
Data Analysis
Intervention

The correct answer is: Intervention

In nursing informatics, the term that refers to any treatment based on clinical judgment and knowledge that a nurse performs to enhance patient/client outcomes is an "Intervention." Interventions are the actions that nurses take to address the identified problems and help achieve desired outcomes for patients. Assessments involve collecting data, data analysis is the process of interpreting data, and outcomes are the results of interventions. However, it is the interventions that specifically involve the actions taken by nurses to improve patient outcomes based on their clinical judgment and knowledge.
