Influence of gender, BMI and body shape on theoretical injection outcome at the ventrogluteal and dorsogluteal sites

Abstract: Aims and objectives: This study aimed to determine the influences of gender, BMI and observed body shape on subcutaneous fat and muscle thicknesses, and theoretical injection outcome, at the ventrogluteal and dorsogluteal intramuscular injection sites.Background: Debate continues as to whether the dorsogluteal or ventrogluteal

“…2a) in order to prevent injury to the sciatic nerve [29,30]. Moreover, administration in the ventrogluteal region diminishes the possibility of subcutaneous injection in overweight patients since the layer of subcutaneous fat is less thick in the ventrogluteal region compared to the dorsogluteal region [31]. It is well known that knee OA is more common in patients with a BMI > 27 kg/m 2 [32].…”

“…Na voljo so tri skupine mišic: deltoidna mišica nadlakti, glutealne mišice zadnjice ter vastus lateralis in rectus femoris v sklopu štiriglave stegenske mišice (Ogston-Tuck, 2014). Izbira mesta in tehnika aplikacije intramuskularne injekcije sta povezani tako s pozitivnimi kot negativnimi izidi pri pacientu (Larkin, et al, 2017a(Larkin, et al, , 2017b.…”

“…Kljub temu pa je dorzoglutealno področje v praksi pogosto uporabljeno za aplikacijo intramuskularne injekcije. Pri tem poleg možne aplikacije zdravila v krvni obtok obstaja tudi nevarnost, da bo zdravilo aplicirano v podkožno tkivo in ne v mišico, saj je omenjeno področje pri mnogih obdano z zajetnim delom podkožnega maščobnega tkiva (Larkin et al, 2017b). Poleg omenjenih zapletov je eden od izidov intramuskularne injekcije tudi pojav bolečine pri pacientu.…”
