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.
