If submitter(s) chooses to appeal the DDC decision, the proposed diagnosis/revision will be placed on the NANDA-I Web Site and will be announced in the journal. A period of 90 days will be provided
for members to submit evidence supporting, modifying, or rejecting the diagnosis/revision. After 90 days, DDC will review feedback and submit a second decision to the submitter(s).
If the DDC chooses not to accept a diagnosis following the second review, the submitter(s) will have an opportunity at the biennial conference to present the diagnosis/revision and the rationale
for disagreement with the DDC decision. The presentation will occur in an open session and require evidence-based argument from the submitter(s) and the DDC regarding the decision. Conference attendees will also have the
opportunity to present evidence-based argument supporting, modifying, or rejecting the diagnosis/revision. Following the open session, the DDC will review all information and forward a decision to the submitter(s) and the Board
of Directors.
The NANDA International Board of Directors will have opportunity to provide evidence-based argument supporting, modifying, or rejecting the submission at two points:
- During the open forum at the biennial conference
- After the conference, the Board of Directors will provide a final review of the DDC recommendation for approval. A decision
by the Board of Directors to modify or reject the DDC's recommendation must be evidence-based and at the same LOE or higher as the evidence presented by the submitter(s) and/or by the DDC.
