The treatment method chosen depends on many factors, in particular, the predicted residual renal function, the risk of chronic kidney disease, the need for temporary or long-term dialysis, and overall long-term survival.

The Effect of Acupressure and Cryotherapy on the Pain of Patients on Hemodialysis During Arteriovenous Fistula Cannulation: A Randomized Crossover Clinical Trial
Nephrol Nurs J. 2023 Mar-Apr;50(2):131-139.ABSTRACTVarious pharmacological and non-pharmacological measures are used to reduce pain of patients on hemodialysis during an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) cannulation. In this randomized, crossover clinical trial, 39 patients randomly received acupressure and cryotherapy. In cryotherapy, an ice cube was used to massage the Hegu point in the hand without the fistula for 10 minutes before AVF cannulation. In acupressure, a moderate pressure with the thumb was applied. The pain score was mild after cryotherapy and acupressure, with no significant difference between the two methods. I...
