Education programmes for arteriovenous fistula self-sare in people on haemodialysis
The AVFistula.Care project intends to contribute to improving nursing interventions through the acquisition of arteriovenous fistula self-care behaviours in people on a regular haemodialysis programme. This project consists of several studies with different methodologies, namely:
- Exploratory/descriptive studies
- Prospective and observational studies
- Methodological studies (creation/validation of structured interventions)
- Clinical trials (experimental or quasi-experimental)
This 36-month project will allow identifying self-care and profiles of people with arteriovenous fistula and on a regular haemodialysis programme. The structured interventions, education programmes, respective assessments will then be designed.
