RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The purse-string suture has been widely used for bleeding control after percutaneous interventions through arteriovenous fistula (AVF) and graft (AVG), and it requires suture removal the next day. This study aimed to introduce a simple method using a tourniquet to facilitate hemostasis following AVF or AVG sheath removal after percutaneous procedures. METHODS: Data were retrospectively collected and included all the consecutive patients who received bleeding control with a tourniquet after percutaneous AVF or AVG interventions. Hemostasis was facilitated using the tourniquet technique after sheath removal. RESULTS: A total of 1966 patients who received the tourniquet technique for bleeding control after percutaneous AVF or AVG interventions were included. Bleeding control was successfully achieved in all patients. Regarding complications, hematoma, thrombosis, and rebleeding occurred in 57 (2.9%), 11 (0.6%), and 8 (0.4%) patients, respectively. Neither pseudoaneurysm nor infection occurred in the patients. Age, gender, pre-existing diseases (including diabetes and hypertension), procedure count, sheath size, hemodialysis access type, and canalization route were similar between patients with and without complications. The primary patency rates at 6,12, 24, and 36 months were 85.0, 64.6, 53.8, and 41.6%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The tourniquet technique is an effective and safe approach for facilitating hemostasis after catheter-based percutaneous interventions of hemodialysis accesses.

BACKGROUND: Nonpharmacological intervention can improve the sleep quality of hemodialysis patients. However, there are many types of nonpharmacological interventions, which makes it difficult to determine the best one. Therefore, this study carried out network meta-analysis to evaluate the effects of nonpharmacological intervention on sleep quality of hemodialysis patients, so as to provide evidence for the selection of the optimal nonpharmacological intervention for the improvement of sleep quality of hemodialysis patients clinically. METHODS: Randomized controlled trials on the effects of nonpharmaceutical interventions on sleep quality in hemodialysis patients were conducted by searching English databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and Web of Science) and Chinese databases (Chinese Scientific Journal Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database, Wanfang, and China Biomedical Literature Database) on computer. The retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to May 2021. Literature screening, data extraction, and evaluation of the risk of bias in the included studies were conducted independently by two researchers. Data analysis was performed with STATA14.0 and GEMTC 0.14.3 software. RESULTS: We will disseminate the findings of this systematic review and meta-analysis via publications in peer-reviewed journals. CONCLUSIONS: This study will provide the best evidence-based evidence to support the effects of non-pharmacological interventions on sleep quality in hemodialysis patients. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval was not required for this study. The systematic review will be published in a peer-reviewed journal, presented at conferences, and shared on social media platforms. This review would be disseminated in a peer-reviewed journal or conference presentations. OSF REGISTRATION NUMBER: DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/4BPKT.
