Music-Assisted Acupressure for Pain During AVF Cannulation in Hemodialysis Patients (MUSIC-ACUP)
Effect of Music-Assisted Acupressure on Pain During Arteriovenous Fistula Cannulation in Hemodialysis Patients: A Randomized Controlled Trial
This randomized controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of music-assisted acupressure on pain experienced during arteriovenous fistula (AVF) cannulation in hemodialysis patients. The study was carried out with 72 patients receiving hemodialysis treatment three times per week via AVF in a state hospital in Gaziantep, Türkiye.
Participants were randomly assigned to one of four groups: music-assisted acupressure, acupressure alone, music alone, and control group (routine care). The acupressure intervention was applied to the Hegu (LI4) point for approximately 3 minutes prior to needle insertion, while the music intervention consisted of listening to instrumental Classical Turkish Music in the Acemaşiran mode through headphones starting 5 minutes before cannulation and continuing until the end of the procedure.
Pain intensity during AVF cannulation was measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) during three consecutive dialysis sessions. The primary outcome was pain severity during needle insertion. The study aimed to determine whether combining music therapy and acupressure would provide greater pain relief compared to single interventions or routine care.
Findings suggest that music-assisted acupressure may be an effective non-pharmacological nursing intervention for reducing procedural pain in hemodialysis patients.

Descrição detalhada
This study was designed as a randomized controlled trial to investigate the effect of music-assisted acupressure on procedural pain during arteriovenous fistula (AVF) cannulation in patients undergoing hemodialysis. The study was conducted between March and November 2024 in the hemodialysis unit of a state hospital in Gaziantep, Türkiye.
A total of 72 eligible patients receiving hemodialysis treatment via AVF were included. Patients were randomly assigned into four equal groups (n=18 per group): music-assisted acupressure, acupressure, music, and control. Randomization was performed using a simple lottery method. All AVF cannulation procedures were performed by the same experienced dialysis nurse to ensure procedural consistency.
The acupressure intervention was applied to the Hegu (LI4) point on the hand contralateral to the AVF site. Finger pressure was applied perpendicularly for approximately 3 minutes prior to needle insertion. The music intervention consisted of listening to instrumental Classical Turkish Music in the Acemaşiran mode through headphones, beginning 5 minutes before cannulation and continuing until the end of the procedure.
Participants in the combined intervention group received both acupressure and music simultaneously using the same protocols described above. The control group received routine hemodialysis care without additional intervention.
Pain intensity during AVF cannulation was assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS, 0-10) immediately after each procedure. Measurements were repeated over three consecutive hemodialysis sessions. Sociodemographic and clinical data were also collected using a structured patient information form.
The primary outcome of the study was pain intensity during AVF cannulation. Data were analyzed using non-parametric statistical tests due to non-normal distribution, including Kruskal-Wallis, Friedman, and Brunner-Langer models for repeated measures. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05.
