- Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the performance of the Buttonhole technique during hemodialysis sessions at a service in Natal/RN- Brazil Method: This is a descriptive, exploratory and observational study that was performed with 17 users of a hemodialysis health service, with data collected in 2016, using a check-list questionnaire and visual analog scale. Results: The majority of the subjects were men (76.5%). The women presented arterial hypertension and chronic renal insufficiency as a disease based on the variables gender, age, alcohol use and other drugs, for both sexes. On the implementation of Bottonhole, the greatest frequency of arteriovenous access, between the sexes, was the radiocephalic. The direct and indirect complications of the button were more frequent in males, with chills, tremors, button infection and access bleeding. Conclusion: The Buttonhole technique was well accepted and performed in the service, contributing to the reduction of pain intensity and the best aesthetic of the user.
