| Description: |
Summary The success of haemodialysis depends on access to the circulation. Preservation of the access site should be a primary goal of patient care. Little research on nursing interventions related to vascular access exists. Access care varies from centre to centre and there are often no written protocols for guidance. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of integrated education on nurses' knowledge. The fundamental principles of vascular access should be used to help train future dialysis staff members in order to improve quality of care. We must continue to gain knowledge in this important area through nursing research and education. This research demonstrates that integrated education improves the knowledge of nurses working in a renal unit. |
