| Abstract | Venous needle dislodgement is a potential serious complication of hemodialysis therapy. In 2012, the American Nephrology Nurses'Association (ANNA) created a collaborative special project workgroup to review venous needle dislodgement occurrence, consequences, and recommended practices, and to develop strategies and resources on venous needle dislodgement to be used by nephrology nurses and other healthcare professionals, as well as by patients and their families. The ANNA Venous Needle Dislodgement Special Project Workgroup conducted a literature review and also surveyed nephrology nurses about their experiences with venous needle dislodgement and their recommendations for needed resources. This article discusses the results of the literature review and survey, and provides resources on venous needle dislodgement, including a venous needle dislodgement risk assessment tool, education materials, and practice recommendations. |
