Objectives The aim study conceptualize an evidence-based supporting complex nursing. Methods We conceptualized through extracting scientific findings design development. To describe CDSS, we developed conceptual framework comprising key components relationships between components. instantiated context hypothetical case. Results present six interrelated demonstrate how each component implemented via Conclusion proposed provides common architecture development bridges Next steps include (1) working identify their knowledge resources particular disease better articulate base needed by (2) develop deploy framework, (3) evaluate care.
