- How to choose the appropriate cannulation technique for vascular access in hemodialysis patientsPublication . Sousa, Clemente Neves; Teles, Paulo; Ribeiro, Olga; Sousa, Rui; Lira, Marta Nunes; Delgado, Elisabete; Oliveira, Debora; Campos, Luís; Fernandes, Filipa; Moura, Sandra Cristina Mendo; Delgado, Millena Freire; Sá, Tiago Gomes; Teixeira, Sílvia Mónica Pereira; Souza, Lara Helk; Ribeiro, Rita Cássia Helú Mendonça; Oliveira, Gabriela Fernanda Neves; Mendonça, Ana Elza Oliveira; Ozen, NurtenThe cannulation technique is important for the survival of the arteriovenous access. Choosing the appropriate technique is a complex decision. Such choice must be customized to patients, considering their characteristics, the type of arteriovenous access and the experience of the hemodialysis team. We describe seven items that can help nurses to identify the appropriate cannulation technique: type of arteriovenous access; drainage vein; hygienic self-care profile; experience of the nursing staff in the cannulation technique and nurse-to-patient ratio; hemodialysis treatment method; patient's condition; and patient's decision. Such items can help nurses in decision-making on the "ideal" cannulation technique for each patient.
- Radio‐cephalic fistula recovered with drainage to median basilic vein by straightening of the forearm cephalic vein: A case reportPublication . Costa, Luísa Lemos; Matos, António Norton; Almeida, Paulo; Teles, Paulo; Loureiro, Luís; Campos, Luís; Delgado, Elisabete; Oliveira, Debora; Campos, Tiago; Inácio, Marta; Fernandes, Filipa; Coutinho, Sara; Ventura, Ana; Pereira, Susana; Castro, Ana; Xavier, Eva; Sousa, Clemente NevesThe distal arteriovenous fistula (AVF) has less complications and better patency than the proximal fistula, when it works properly. The complications of outflow of the fistula are complex, and it is necessary to analyze all solutions to solve the problem. We introduce a novel approach to solve outflow problems of a radio-cephalic AVF by straightening of the forearm cephalic vein with drainage into the median basilic vein.
