Stress ball

Before AVF cannulation, patients will be given a round, colored, medium-hard, high-quality silicone squeezable ball (the arm without vascular access will be used). In order to avoid implying that the procedure is inherently stressful, patients will be given the name squeeze ball when they are given information about the stress ball application. Patients will be instructed to continue squeezing and relaxing the stress ball (squeezing and relaxing once, counting from one to three) for 5 minutes before and throughout the AVF cannulation procedure. Patients will be instructed to focus their attention on the stress ball and focus on squeezing the stress ball.
