en-usButtonhole CannulationButtonhole cannulation has and continues to be a topic with strong opinions on opposite sides. There are those who firmly believe that among home HD patients the risk of access related-bloodstream infection (ARBSI) is higher for those using the buttonhole technique. âOthers strongly believe that home patients are not at higher risk of ARBSI if the proper technique for cannulation is carefully taught and patients closely monitored. Many opinions abound. There are obvious benefits to the patient but those benefits also come with risk. <p></p><p></p> <p> With <i>Kidney360</i>, we aim to look at all sides of key nephrology issues. As such, this collection of articles on buttonhole cannulation is being presented so that you can learn the many different perspectives. The collection will contain articles on the patient perspective <i>(The One Thing Clear About Buttonholes, is that Nothing is Clear About Buttonholes) </i> the nursing perspective <i>(Buttonhole Cannulation of Arteriovenous Fistulas: A Dialysis Nurse's Perspective)</i>, Pros & Cons, Commentary and more. </p> <p> We welcome your feedback on this series.

- Buttonhole Cannulation of Arteriovenous Fistulas in the United StatesThe cannulation technique of a hemodialysis vascular access has remained controversial with differing viewpoints. The quality of dialysis, overall patient safety, and individual dialysis experience often dictate the type of cannulation technique used in clinical practice. The three commonly used techniques to access a hemodialysis vascular access are the rope ladder, area, and buttonhole. Although the buttonhole technique has been around since the mid-1970s, the dialysis community remains divided on its suitability for routine use to provide maintenance hemodialysis therapy. The proponents of this technique value the ease of cannulation with less pain and discomfort whereas the opponents highlight the increased risk of infection. The actual clinical evidence from the United States is limited and remains inconclusive. The current review provides an overview of the available experience from the United States, highlighting the correct technique of creating a buttonhole, summarizing the current evidence, and recommending a need for larger randomized controlled studies in both in-center and home hemodialysis populations.10.34067/KID.0000052020Fri, 06 Mar 2020 05:29:38 GMT-08:00Buttonhole Cannulation of Arteriovenous Fistulas in the United StatesThe cannulation technique of a hemodialysis vascular access has remained controversial with differing viewpoints.
