Hello guys",) i want to share another erudition and some experience of mine, this one is about our return demonstration in Intradermal (ID), Intramuscular (IM) and Subcutaneous (SQ) injection, this was happened on November 17-19...My feeling was quite indescribable it's like i am exicited but quite nervous..lol.. anyway here are some pictures on what we have done...
......the preparations

-----------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------
INTRADERMAL INJECTION (ID) - Administration of drug into the dermal layer of the skin just beneath the epidermis...
Right - Other test
Left - Commonly TB Screening
Assess: the
appearance of injection site,
Specific drug action/
expected response and
client knowledge of drug action and respose....
Check: the Label, if it is taken from the medication cart, after and before withdrawing the medication against Medication Administration Record (MAR)....
Common Site's are:
Inner lower arm
Upper chest
Back beneath the scapulae...
5 - 15 degree angle
1st - Proper hand washing/Appropriate infection control
2nd - Prepare the Medication
3rd - Prepare the Client
4th - Explain to the Client the procedure (Medication will produce small
wheal sometimes called "
bleb".).....
Do not massage the area because it can disperse the medication into the tissue...
--------------------------------------------------
INTRAMUSCULAR INJECTION - are absorbed more quickly than SQ injections because of the greater blood supply to the body muscles...
ADULT:
well - developed muscles - 4ml medication (gluteus medius and gluteus maximus muscles.)
less developed muscles - 1-2ml
deltoid muscle - 0.5 - 1ml
....the size of the syringe used depends on the amount of medication being administered but usually
2-5ml syringe needed and needle are 1 1/2 inches, #21 or #22 gauze.
5cm/ 4 fingers from acromion process..
These one of my favorite captured pic. during our return demonstration,
....the eyes that give more emotions act upon the demonstration.
Factors indicate the size and length of the NEEDLE to be used are the muscle, type of solution, amount of adipose tissue covering muscle and the age of the client...
