Abstract: 【Abstract】 Objective To explore the effect of arteriovenous fistula multifunctional fixation for hemodialysis patients in the clinical application and observation. Methods In this study, a total 60 cases of hemodialysis patients with arteriovenous fistula were included, and they were randomly assigned into two group which are test group(30 cases)and control group (30 cases) respectively. At the beginning of hemodialysis, applying the arteriovenous fistula multifunctional fixation method and traditional treatment towel covering method respectively. During the 12 months of treatment period, the incidence of fistula complications were compared between the two groups of hemodialysis patients. Result The incidence of fistula complications of the test group was significantly lower than those of the control group, and the rates of hematoma, needle prolapse, bleeding and other complications were statistically significant (χ² hematoma/bleeding needle/ prolapse=87.305，140.466，15.153，P=0.000). The satisfacation of two groups have statistically significant (χ² = 5.45, P＜0.05). Conclusion For the arteriovenous fistula, the multifunctional fixation method has a good protective effect, thus can reduce the occurrence of fistula complications significantly. Finally it can improve patient satisfaction and reduce the workload of nurses.
