Study Summary

An arteriovenous fistula or graft access (AVF/AVG) for dialysis is often considered a superior option for delivery of dialysis, but requires needles to be inserted. Patients on dialysis who indicate fear of needles as the reason for not switching from a long-term central venous catheter (CVC) access to a fistula or graft access and who otherwise meet the eligibility criterial will be asked to participate. Patients will receive either a standard or an enhanced intervention to address their fear of needles. The enhanced intervention includes the standard intervention plus video training about Synera and trying out an actual patch. Over the 4 months following the intervention, how many patients sign up to switch access will be tracked.

Primary Outcome

The primary outcome measure is how many patients progress from a score of 1 or 2 on the questionnaire (precontemplation or contemplation) as measured before the intervention to a score of 3 or 4 (planning or action) after the intervention, and it is measured one week after the intervention.
