Medical device for injecting or removing fluids.

Syringe for diabetics, shorter needles, specific sizes.

Introducing fluids into body tissue/organs.

Faster absorption, protects drugs from digestion.

Metal, glass, and plastic, with varied functions.

A type of injection that delivers medication directly into a muscle. It's often used for drugs that might irritate other tissues.

A common IM injection site located in the buttock, used because it's a thick muscle and walking promotes good blood flow.

A safer IM injection site in the gluteal area, preferred because it's free of major nerves and blood vessels.

A small IM injection site on the upper arm, best for small amounts as it's close to the radial artery and nerve.

Faster onset of action, allows for larger fluid/medication volumes, manages fluid imbalances, helps stabilize patients quickly during emergencies.

Risk of infection, potential for rapid reactions, requires strict sterile technique, possible complications like air embolism, vein infection, and blood clots.

The needle is inserted at a 25° angle during an intravenous injection.

Intravenous injection delivers medication directly into the bloodstream, bypassing other tissues and organs, allowing for the most rapid distribution throughout the body.

The arm is the preferred location due to large, visible veins, reducing risk of complications.

The groin is the most dangerous spot for IV injection. It has high risk of hitting the carotid artery and other vital structures.

While veins are easy to find, hands and wrists are risky due to smaller veins and more nerve endings, leading to potential damage.

Injecting into the neck is highly dangerous due to the proximity of the carotid artery, potentially leading to fatal consequences.

Legs and feet are generally less preferred for IV injections as they have smaller veins and are less accessible for proper access.
