Summary

Statement of the problem:

This study will be conducted to answer the following question:

Is there a difference in the efficacy of TENS and distractive techniques when combined with cryotherapy in managing pain due to arteriovenous fistula puncture and improving quality of life in hemodialysis patients ?

Null Hypotheses:

1. TENS has no statistically significant effect on pain management and quality of life in hemodialysis patients undergoing arteriovenous fistula puncture.
2. Distractive techniques have no statistically significant effect on pain management and quality of life in hemodialysis patients undergoing arteriovenous fistula puncture.
3. There is no statistically significant difference between TENS and distractive techniques in managing pain and improving quality of life in hemodialysis patients undergoing arteriovenous fistula puncture.

Conditions

  • TENS, Distractive Techniques, Arteriovenous Fistula, Puncture Pain, Hemodialysis

Interventions

OTHER

TENS, Distractive techniques, cryotherapy

Group (1): Will receive (TENS , cryotherapy and conventional physical therapy ) Massage with ice was done by the researcher over the AVF puncture site . After that, the TENS electrodes will be applied by the researcher 6 centimeters apart closely up and down the skin area for insertion of the needle. * Group (2): Will receive (Distraction techniques ,cryotherapy and conventional physical therapy ) Initially five minutes before starting hemodialysis, Distraction techniques will be applied. Natural and eye-catching images were broadcasted through a video display device on a laptop monitor in a manner that was easy for the older patient to watch while they were lying on the bed. Massage with ice was done by the researcher over the AVF puncture site * Group (3): Will receive (cryotherapy and conventional physical therapy )
