About this study

Primary objective :

To compare the number of complications related to arteriovenous fistula (AVF)puncture before and after a complete simulation training program, on a fistula arm of procedural simulation (conceptualization of the approach + puncture + palpation + identification + use of ultrasound)

Secondary objective (s):

Compare other adverse events related to AVF puncture during a hemodialysis session

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients whose nurse is trained in hemodialysis receiving a FAV puncture in the hemodialysis unit of the nephrology department, dialysis, transplantation

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients with AVF puncture in the emergency / withdrawal area of the nephrology department, dialysis, transplantation

Treatment and study plan

simulation

Other

pre-training observation training post training observation

Primary outcomes

  1. Complications related to arteriovenous fistula puncture (AVF)

    Time frame: 25 days

    Number of complications of fistula puncture :

    either failed unipuncture puncture either failed bipunctional puncture either simple hematoma either hematoma does not allow the continuation of dialysis

Secondary outcomes

  1. Adverse events related to AVF puncture during a hemodialysis session

    Time frame: 25 days

    Number of perdialytic bleeding : accidental removal of the needle

  2. Adverse events related to AVF puncture during a hemodialysis session

    Time frame: 25 days

    Pain score (EN digital scale) felt at the time of puncture
