Data were collected from medical records of patients admitted to the emergency department of a large cardiovascular teaching hospital. Sociodemographic and clinical variables, along with nursing diagnoses based on NANDA-I classification, were extracted. Cox proportional hazards regression identified factors associated with mortality, while generalized linear regression with a gamma distribution assessed predictors of length of stay. Discriminatory performance of nursing diagnoses for mortality was evaluated using ROC curve analysis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Findings<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 155 patients were included (mean age 62.6 years; 58.7% male); 29 (18.7%) died and 126 (81.3%) were discharged, with a median hospital stay of 5 days. Age, chronic kidney disease, and lower serum sodium were independent prognosis of mortality. The number of nursing diagnoses showed poor discriminative ability for mortality prediction (AUC = 0.59). However, each additional nursing diagnosis was associated with a 6.3% increase in hospital stay (p\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). Patients with acute coronary syndrome or hypertension had on average, 20% shorter hospital stays.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The number of nursing diagnoses was independently associated with longer hospitalization, suggesting that these assessments capture care complexity beyond traditional medical diagnoses.
