  1. Intramuscular Injection Sites?

    mfh157 replied to Nurse Bethie's topic in Patient Safety Issues
    The dorsalgluteal is longer acceptable or used for IM sites. The ventralgluteal is used. Nursing education text books no longer include the dorsal as an option for injections. I no longer teach dorsal to my students. Many lawsuits over injury to the sciatic nerve. I call the doral-"the droopy draws"-meaning in our aging population- gravity pulls the anatomy downward -more at risk of hitting a major B.V. or nerve. As an educator, my biggest issue are those nurses that refuse to use the ventral site.-It is actually less painful and safer. Mary
