Resumen
PINTO, Rui et al. Arteriovenous fistula cannulation in hemodialysis: Constructing and validating a decision-making model. Rev. Enf. Ref. [online]. 2023, vol.serVI, n.2, suppl.1, e22021. Epub 14-Jun-2023. ISSN 0874-0283. https://doi.org/10.12707/rvi22021.
Background:
The arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the preferred vascular access for hemodialysis. Four different cannulation techniques can be used: Rope Ladder (RL), Buttonhole (BH), Multiple Single cannulation Technique (MuST), or Area Puncture (AP).
Objective:
To build and validate a decision-making instrument for the optimal AVF cannulation technique in hemodialysis.
Methodology:
This two-stage methodological study using the Delphi method was conducted between October 2021 and February 2022 with 27 experts. The decision-making instrument for choosing the cannulation technique was divided into four blocks: physical assessment, ultrasound assessment, vascular access graphical representation, and observations. The content validity index ≥ 0.90 was used in the analysis.
Results:
The instrument’s structure obtained the unanimous agreement of the experts and an overall content validity index of 0.94.
Conclusion:
The instrument under analysis proved to have the face and content validity for nursing consultations.
