Abstract:

【Abstract】Objective To discuss the clinical application of a simple holder for the hemodialysis arm. Method During the hemodialysis session, the intervention group used a simple holder device for the hemodialysis arm, while the control group used the traditional fixation method for the hemodialysis arm. The adverse events of arteriovenous fistula and the comfort of dialysis arm were compared between the two groups. After the use, the satisfaction of the simple holder for the hemodialysis arm was assessed by the patients and nurses. Result The adverse events of arteriovenous fistula and the comfort degree of dialysis arm were significantly higher in intervention group than in control group (t=11.145, P<0.001). The satisfaction degree of the simple holder method was significantly higher than that of traditional fixation method (Z=-5.463, P＜0.001) in both
the patients and the nurses. Conclusion The simple holder has a good fixation and protection effects on the hemodialysis arm and can significantly reduce the adverse events of arteriovenous fistula during hemodialysis.
