Summary

Pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods are frequently used to reduce cannulation-related pain in patients with fistulas. Non-pharmacological approaches have been more favored than pharmacological approaches for some reasons, including ease of use and fewer side effects. Patients describe worry about the success of needling and resigned acceptance of pain and anxiety about dialysis needles. With this background in mind, mirror therapy has been introduced as one of the non-pharmacological interventions in the domain of pain management.
