- 2. Parenteral Medication
Administration
• Medications administered by the parenteral
route enter body tissues and the circulatory
system by injection
• What are the four routes of parenteral
medication administration?
• Failure to inject a medication correctly results
in complications

- 3. Principles for Practice
Communicate with interprofessional team and
assess patient’s priorities of care and preferences
Use technology available when preparing and
giving medications
Educate about each medication
Minimize a patient’s discomfort when giving
injections

- 4. Patient-Centered Care
• Research shows that ethnicity, genetics,
and culture influence drug response,
pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics,
and patient adherence and education
• Knowledge about variations in therapeutic
dose and adverse effects as well as
cultural considerations is essential in
administering medications to different
ethnic groups

- 5. Evidence-Based Practice
• Select needle size based on patient gender, weight and
body mass index, condition, site, drug, and volume
• Make the ventrogluteal site the first choice wherever
possible for deep intramuscular injections as there are
reduced risks of nerve or muscle injury
• Assess the skin and the patient’s condition
• Inject at 90°, dart-like, to the hub of the needle and inject at
1 mL per second
• Wait at least 10 seconds before withdrawing the needle

- 6. Safety Guidelines
1. Be vigilant; avoid distractions while preparing an
injection.
2. Verify that the medications have not expired.
3. Use at least two identifiers before administering
medications and check against the medication
administration
record (MAR).

- 7. Safety Guidelines(Cont.)
4. Clarify unclear medication orders and ask for
help whenever you are uncertain about an
order or calculation.
5. Follow all policies related to use of the
technology and do not use “workarounds.”
6. Use strict aseptic technique during medication
preparation and administration.

- 8. Safety Guidelines(Cont.)
7. Most of the time, you cannot delegate
medication administration.
8. No-interruption zones (NIZs) have been
recommended by the Institute for Safe
Medicine Practices.
9. Insert the needle at the proper angle,
smoothly, and quickly
10. Inject the medication slowly but smoothly.

- 9. Safety Guidelines(Cont.)
11. Hold the syringe steady once the needle is in
the tissue to prevent tissue damage.
12. Withdraw the needle smoothly at the same
angle used for insertion.
13. Gently apply an antiseptic pad (e.g., alcohol)
or dry, sterile gauze pad to the site
14. Apply gentle pressure at the injection site.
15. Rotate injection sites to prevent the formation
of indurations and abscesses

in One Syringe
Procedural Guideline 22-1

vial and an ampule
Mixing compatible medicationsavoids the need to give a
patient more than one injection
Consult a compatibility chart or a pharmacist for compatible
medications
