Description
Summary:The objective of the study is know the care with the arteriovenous fistula carried by the patient with chronic renal and the role of a nurse care to such. Is a descriptive, exploratory study of qualitative approach, developed with 20 patients in a dialysis clinic in Rondonópolis (MT), through individual interviews using a semi structured questionnaire. The analysis of the data was content analysis as categorical recommended by Bardin, resulting in two categories: self care with arteriovenous fistula and nurses in health education. In the category of self-care with the arteriovenous fistula, 70% received guidance about the care of the fistula with the nurse, the care most often mentioned was "no catch weight." However, when asked about the reason for the realization of such care, a large part could not explain. In the category of the nurse in health education, the nurse was quoted once as exclusively responsible for the guidelines on caring for the FAV. Considering the results, there was lack of information of these patients, regarding the reasons for the need to care of it, which is more worrying.
