Intradermal Injections Needle size: 26G or 27G, ⅜ - ⅝ inch long Angle of injection: 10-15 degrees Medication amount given: 0.01 to 0.05 mL Medications given: Tuberculin skin tests, allergy testing Common sites of injection: Anterior forearm, mid-back areas Copyright  ©2012 Delmar, Cengage Learning. All rights reserved.

Intradermal Injections A small wheal should develop at the site of the injection Record: speed of the reaction, size of the wheal Observe the patient about 20 minutes (or longer) for any reaction Copyright  ©2012 Delmar, Cengage Learning. All rights reserved.

Subcutaneous Injections Needle size: 25G to 27G, ½ to ⅝ inch Angle of injection: 45 degrees Medication amount given: Less than 2 mL Medications given: Insulins Common sites of injection: Upper outer part of the arm, abdominal area, or upper thigh Copyright  ©2012 Delmar, Cengage Learning. All rights reserved.

Intramuscular Injections Needle size: 18G to 23G, 1 to 3 inches Angle of injection: 90 degrees Medication amount given: 0.5 to 3.0 mL Medications given: Narcotic pain medications, loading dose of antibiotics Common sites of injection: Deltoid, gluteus medius, ventrogluteal, and vastus lateralis Copyright  ©2012 Delmar, Cengage Learning.

Copyright ©2012 Delmar, Cengage Learning. Z-Track IM Method This technique prevents the medication from following the path of the needle and leaking out into the tissues Used for injecting substances that may be irritating or cause discoloration of the subcutaneous tissues Do not massage the injection site after administration Copyright  ©2012 Delmar, Cengage Learning. All rights reserved.

Injections and Children Considerations Needle length: The size of the child’s arm or leg will help to decide the size of the underlying muscle, which determines the needle length appropriate for the muscle thickness. Needle gauge: Determined by the viscosity of the medication. Injection site: The vastus lateralis is the preferred injection site for infants and young children Copyright  ©2012 Delmar, Cengage Learning. All rights reserved.

Copyright ©2012 Delmar, Cengage Learning. Immunizations Natural immunity: After recovery from exposure to certain illnesses, antibodies are generated Artificial immunity: Produced by administering immunizations or vaccines that trigger an immune response in the body, which in turn stimulates the production of antibodies Copyright  ©2012 Delmar, Cengage Learning. All rights reserved.

Copyright ©2012 Delmar, Cengage Learning. Types of Vaccines Live attenuated (changed) pathogens Examples: varicella and measles Pathogenic toxin Examples: diphtheria and tetanus Killed pathogen Examples: pertussis (whooping cough), rabies, and poliomyelitis Copyright  ©2012 Delmar, Cengage Learning.
