入选标准

  • The study will only include the following type of patients:
  • 1. Adult, in-centre haemodialysis patients
  • 2. Undergoing intermittent haemodialysis or haemodiafiltration, using an AV fistula that has been cannulated for haemodialysis for no longer than 6 months, using any cannulation technique and regularly using two needles for haemodialysis (i.e. more than 75% of the time)
  • 3. Undergoing cannulation performed by registered or unregistered staff in the haemodialysis nursing team
  • 4. Able and willing to complete a questionnaire, either independently or with support from a carer
  • 5. Patients aged 18 years or older with the capacity to provide informed consent
  • 6. Agree to not use topical or sub-dermal local anaesthetic during the cannulation procedure in the study period
  • Patients undergoing shared care, where they perform part of the cannulation procedure, will not excluded, as long as nursing staff insert the fistula needle.
  • As this is a feasibility study, it will also include:
  • Registered or unregistered nursing staff working in dialysis units, who perform cannulation of AV access for haemodialysis

排除标准

  • The study will exclude any haemodialysis patient with a clinical reason not to perform one of cannulation techniques*, which would prevent true randomisation. Criteria that should exclude patients for this reason include:
  • 1. Grafted or stented sections on the AV fistula
  • 2. Metallic heart valve or pacemaker
  • 3. Previous positive MRSA screens of swabs in last 12 months
  • 4. Previous positive MSSA screens of swabs in last 3 months or a history of more than 3 MSSA positive screens
  • 5. Previous positive MRSA or MSSA bacteraemia in last 5 years
  • 6. Previous endocarditis in the last 5 years
  • 7. Previous or known allergy or skin reaction attributed to chlorhexidine or alcohol
  • 8. Current rash or skin wounds over AV fistula vessel
  • 9. Tortuous vessel with no straight segment of at least 7cm
  • 10. Active infection in the AV fistula, being treated with antibiotics
  • 11. Plan to perform a live related kidney transplant in next 6 months
  • 12. Plan to self-cannulate or initiate carer cannulation in the next 6 months
  • *As per BRS & VASBI recommendations, buttonhole technique should be avoided in patients with high infection risk and rope ladder cannot be performed in vessel with short cannulation segment.
  • The following nursing staff will be excluded:
  • 1. Nursing staff who have never performed cannulation of trial participants
  • 2. Nursing staff undergoing training to perform cannulation of AV access for haemodialysis, who are yet not deemed competent to perform this without supervision
  • 3. Student nurses or non-English nurses currently undertaking an adaption course to become registered nurses in the UK
  • 4. Bank or agency nursing staff not employed by participating NHS renal units
