Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators (NDNQI) collects data on various indicators that reflect the quality of nursing care and patient outcomes. This includes pressure ulcer development, unit-based falls, nursing turnover rates, and nosocomial infections. Blood glucose levels, while important for patient care, are not specifically collected by the NDNQI as a nursing quality indicator.
