About

It was planned to examine the effect of fistula-related education given to patients receiving hemodialysis treatment on their self-care behaviors.

Nurse-led education about fistula for hemodialysis patients affects fistula self-care behaviors.

Nurse-led training regarding fistula to hemodialysis patients does not affect fistula self-care behaviors.

Full description

Hemodialysis patients in the experimental group will be given face-to-face training in 2 sessions. Patients will also receive an educational brochure on fistula self-care. Simultaneously, patients will receive routine treatment and care.

No intervention will be performed on patients in the control group. These patients will receive normal treatment and care.

A pre-test will be applied to both groups at the first meeting and their self-care behaviors related to fistula will be examined. Three months later, fistula-related self-care behaviors will be evaluated again with the relevant scale.
