摘要：The chronic kidney disease is most dangerous disease which leads to death globally. Hemo-dialysisis the treatment given to the patients to prevent complication. The aims of the study is to evaluate the Effectiveness of Cryotherapy on Arteriovenous fistula puncture related pain and behavioural changes in the patients undergoing Hemodialysis in SRM General Hospital. A single blinded quantitative true experimental research design was used in this study. After decision from expert committee and explaining and getting the consent from the participants the data was collected. 90 patients (45 study + 45 control) were selected as simple random sampling technique. Pretest was done by demographic variables, clinical variables, Numerical pain scale and standardized FLACC behavioural scale for both group.Cryotherapy was given about 15 minutes for experimental group.post test was done with same questionnaire after the insertion of the needle for both experimental and control group. The result revealed that in intervention group the pretest value for the pain level Mean is 5.31 with SD 0.97, whereas the post test value for the pain level Mean is 2.56 with Standard Deviation 0.94.The p value is 0.01. The pre-test value for the behavioural changes Mean is 2.0 with SD 1.98,whereas the post test value for the behavioural changes Mean is 0.36 with SD 0.71. The p value is 0.01 and it is significant. In control group, the pre test value for the pain level Mean is 5.09 with SD0.92, whereas the post test for the pain level Mean is 5.11 with SD0.91. The p value is 0.9. The pre-test value for the behavioural changes Mean is 3.0 with SD2.04, whereas the post test value for the behavioural changes Mean is 2.98 with SD2.07.Thep value is 0.66and it is not significant. The study concluded that the pain reduction and behavioural changes were significant in the intervention group. Hence the hypothesis formulated in this study is proved.
