Abstract
Background: Dialysis center nurses play a central role in preventing arteriovenous fistula complications. Aim of study: Was to assess nurses’ performance regarding arteriovenous fistula cannulation. Research design: A descriptive research design was utilized to conduct this study. Setting: This study was conducted at dialysis unit in Makkah, Saudi Arabia Hospital. Sample: All available 50 nurses working at previous mentioned setting. Tools of data collection: Two tools were used. I: A structured questionnaire to assess knowledge. I: Observational checklist to assess practice regarding arteriovenous fistula cannulation. Results: Less than two thirds of nurses had poor knowledge regarding arteriovenous fistula, while less than one-third of them had good knowledge. Less than three-quarters of the studied nurses had unsatisfactory level of total practices about arteriovenous fistula cannulation. Conclusion: There was a positive statically significant correlation between nurses’ knowledge and practices regarding arteriovenous fistula cannulation Recommendations: In-service training programs should frequently be established in the unit for continuous up dating and regeneration of nurse’s knowledge and skills to maintain and improve level of awareness and practice.
