Study Notes

Course Information

Parenteral Injection

  • Parenteral administration is preferred in situations where enteral (oral) administration is not suitable or rapid effect is needed (e.g., intravenous, intratissue)
  • Bioavailability of parenteral medications is typically complete (100%).
  • Parenteral formulations must be sterile and ideally isotonic and non-pyrogenic, closely matching the body's pH (7.4).

Rationale for Parenteral Administration

  • Drugs that are not absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract
  • Medications that are decomposed in the gastrointestinal tract
  • Situations requiring prompt action of medication
  • Unresponsive patients
  • Unable to ingest medication (e.g., nausea, vomiting, diarrhea)

Disadvantages of Parenteral Treatment

  • Infection risk
  • Toxic and allergic responses
  • Tissue injury, localized hemorrhage, tissue necrosis, sterile abscesses
  • Pain
  • Costly

Types of Parenteral Injections

  • Intramuscular (IM)
  • Subcutaneous (SC)
  • Intradermal (ID)
  • Intravenous (IV)

Intramuscular Injection (IM)

  • Delivers medication into deep muscle tissue.
  • Suitable for potent drugs.
  • Maximum volume for adults is 5 ml.
  • Maximum volume for children/elderly/cachetic patients is less than 2 ml (children under 2 years: 1 ml).
  • Injection sites may include dorsogluteal and laterofemoral regions (gluteus maximus and gluteus medius muscles in the dorsogluteal region) and deltoid muscle.

Subcutaneous Injection (SC)

  • Delivery of medication into the subcutaneous tissue beneath the dermis.
  • Suitable for non-irritating medications.
  • Typical volumes range from 0.5 ml to 1 ml.
  • Common injection sites include the upper arm, anterior thigh, scapula area, dorsogluteal area, and abdomen.

Intradermal Injection (ID)

  • Medication delivery into the dermis (just beneath the epidermis).
  • Used for diagnostic tests (e.g., tuberculin test, allergen/drug sensitivity), local anesthesia, and in some vaccinations.
  • The absorption rate is the slowest among all parenteral routes.
  • Injection sites may include the inner surface of the forearm, upper arm dorsal surface, and the superior back surface.

Intravenous Injection (IV)

  • Medication is administered directly into a vein (bloodstream).
  • Used for rapid effects and continuous delivery.
  • Considered a hazardous practice due to swift effects.
  • The process is referred to as infusion.

Infusion Devices

  • Infusion pumps deliver IV fluids, medications, and nutritional support.
  • Infusion pumps are important for controlled release, precise delivery of small doses over extended periods, and for facilitating continuous infusion at a consistent rate.
  • Smart infusion pumps are employed to minimize medication administration errors.
  • Computer support systems (e.g. barcode systems) minimize patient identification errors and dosage errors.

Blood Pressure Assessment

  • The use of modern technology allows for more accurate blood pressure measurement.
  • Mobile apps use a camera to assess blood pressure from a fingertip.

Vascular Imaging Methodology

  • Vascular imaging devices visualize blood vessels beneath the skin's surface.
  • This method reduces patient discomfort and strain on healthcare professionals.
  • The methodology involves the use of infrared light.

Project - Body Temperature Assessment

  • The project uses an Arduino-based system with a temperature sensor to record and continuously monitor infant body temperature.
  • Data is transmitted to a mobile device for real-time monitoring and alerts the parent in case of high fever.
