Abstract

Aim. This subject is a confusing matter for intramuscular injection administrators in clinical practice. The correct assessment of this situation is important for probable complications. There isn’t any research in the literature that assesses the distances of the injection area to some landmarks. This study was carried out to determine these regions more accurately.Introduction.Intramuscular injection is a commonplace nursing procedure. Although considered a basic technique, it is far from innocuous. Gluteal region muscles are the most commonly used region in the practice and the necessary precautions must be taken. Method. A total of 216 male and female students, from University of Muğla School of Health Sciences, Nursing and Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Departments were randomly selected and included to the study. Results. In this study we found that intramuscular injection location in males is 1.87±0.63 cm and in females 2.28±1.01 cm from the upper point. Conclusion. The research base for intramuscular injection site is limited. We think that these distances will be very valuable in clinical practice in the patient population consisting of 17-29 years of age and who have normal body mass index. This study will be a norm for patients who have a normal body mass index.

Keywords: Intramuscular injection, distance, injection site, body mass index, nursing, clinical practice, dorsogluteal site

 

Özet

Amaç. Bu çalışma klinik uygulamada kas içi enjeksiyon uygulayıcıları için  kafa karıştırcı bir konudur. Bu durumun doğru değerlendirilmesi muhtemel komplikasyonlar için önemlidir. Enjeksiyon bölgesinin mesafesini değerlendiren literatürde herhangi bir araştırma yoktur.bu çalışma bu bölgeleri daha doğru bir şekilde belirlemek için gerçekleştirildi. İntarmusküler enjeksiyon yaygın bir hemşirelik uygulamasıdır. Temel bir teknik olarak düşünülmesine rağmen zarar vermektedir. Gluteal bölge kasları pratikte en yaygın kullanılan bölgedir ve gerekli tedbirler alınmalıdır. Yöntem. Mugla Üniversitesi saglık yüksek okulunun hemşirelik, fizyoterapi ve rehabilitasyon bölümünden kadın ve erkek toplam 216 öğrenci rastgele seçildi ve çalışmaya dahil edildi. Bulgular. Bu çalışmada intramusküler enjeksiyonun bayanlarda en üst noktadan 2,28±1,01 cm ve erkeklerde 1,87±0,63 cm aşagısı olduğunu bulduk. Sonuç. Bu araştırma intramusküler enjeksiyon yeri için sınırlı bir çalışmadır. Bu mesafelerin normal vücut indeksine sahip ve 17-29 yaş arası hasta populasyonunda klinik pratikte çok değişken olacağını düşündük. Bu çalışma normal vücut kitle endeksine sahip hastalar için bir norm olacak.
