how do injections made by the doctor work once administrated into the body?

IntraVenous - you know\n\nIntraMuscular - goes thru capillaries, to venules to veins\n\nSubCutaneous (Under the Skin) - typically for Rabies (dog bite); the injection would be given under the skin above the muscle. It is intended to get to go through your capillaries. But without getting very hot (intra body temperature is more) so the virus doesnt die.\n\nIntraArterial: Rarely used; intended to go to a particular part of the body. Like a feet infection.\n\nIntraCardiac: Adrenaline in Heart attacks.

That is up to you and your doctor.  I get a B-12 injection once every 3 weeks.

I heard of "Z tract" technique, where you use your hand, or finger, to pull the skin and muscle while you inject a deep Intramuscular injection and let it go when you pull out the needle. This is because sometimes when you do a deep injection, the medicine "seeps" back up and out of your skin a little where the needle went in. Z technique blocks the medicine from doing this if it is irritating to the skin layers.

Ambulance services operate under a medical director that is a physician. That director establishes what medications, what dose and under what circumstances they can be used. The paramedics using these orders are working under his or her medical license. There are no "laws" governing such things.

usually a Rheumatologist, it is not the kind of medication that you take home with you.  It is usually administered in the doctors office.

Either injected moulded or turned

right after you get the results back from the test you have your doctor do for you.

Take vitals, dign in patients, prepare rooms, clean rooms/instruments. Restock medecines, answer phones, doctors assistant. Pretty much everything, depending on the doctor if they train you to they also let you give shots. Call in presecriptions, ahndle patient folders (confidential information). Write perscriptions with the doctors signature. Hope that helps.

I will try to address each of your questions separately :)\n\nACUPUNCTURE NEEDLES\nIn America, acupuncturists use pre-sterilized, disposable needles.  Unlike syringes, they are not hollow because they are not used to inject substances into the body.  Most are made of stainless steel, but specialty needles can be found that have copper handles, or are made of gold, silver, even cobalt.  Technology allows them to be made very thin, sharp and somewhat flexible, and they usually slide in painlessly. They come in a wide variety of lengths and gauges (the link below will point you towards suppliers that have pictures and details about needles).  The majority are in little tubes, or pipettes, and this is helpful in protecting and inserting them.\n\nWHERE THE NEEDLES ARE INSERTED\nThere are well over 300 acupoints on the human body, and they lie along meridians, or energy pathways.  Furthermore, there are all kinds of acupuncture systems (scalp, hand, auricular/ear, etc) in addition to the full body kind.  Acupuncturists know where to find the points and when they should, or should not, be used.  For example, acupuncture is safe during pregnancy, but some points are contraindicated, meaning they are not to be used.  Acupuncturists are trained extensively in these matters, which is why it is important to find a qualified therapist.\n\nAcupuncture points have names, and some practitioners use a meridian/number system (e.g., SP10 is the 10th point on the Spleen Meridian) and others use the Chinese names (e.g., Shenmen).  In all cases, the points used are carefully selected and documented.\n\nSome practitioners use only a few needles and some use a greater number, like 20 or more.  How many points are used, and how deeply the needles are inserted will be determined, again, by your therapist’s style and your diagnosis.\n\nPROCESS\nThere are a number of acupuncture styles (e.g., Chinese, Japanese, Korean, 5 element, 8 principle) and they all vary slightly.  Generally, an acupuncturist will evaluate you and determine a course of treatment.  Sometimes they will take your pulse and examine your tongue.  Sometimes they will palpate (press on) your abdomen or study your face.  Most will ask a lot of questions.  These are reliable, valid measurements as long as the therapist has received proper training.\n\nYour therapist will explain to you the risks and benefits of acupuncture therapy, a process you expect before any medical therapy.  \n\nOnce you have been assessed, you will most likely relax on a comfortable table.  Your therapist may take a moment to find the acupuncture point by pressing around the area, feeling your body's muscle and bone structure.  Usually the area where the needle will go will be swabbed with alcohol.  Then the needle is inserted.  Sometimes you will feel a slight pinch, like a little bug bite, as the needle goes in.  Most of the time, you will feel nothing uncomfortable at all.  Many people are surprised by how painless this process is.\n\nOnce the needles are in, you might be left to relax with the lights down low, and you can fall asleep if you feel like it.  Acupuncture can be very relaxing.  Some people report feeling a local, dull pressure where a needle is, and that is normal.\n\nDepending on your condition, you might rest with the needles in for 20 minutes to an hour.  This, once again, depends on the style of acupuncture, plus your diagnosis.\n\nSome acupuncturists use additional therapies, such massage or moxibustion, and those can take place while the needles are in, or before or after.  \n\nYour therapist will make recommendations for what to do or not do to optimize your therapy before you leave.\n\nBe sure to check out the links below for more details about the needles and about the various styles.

Scientists do. They may work for a pharmaceutical company, government or on their own. They test it on lab animals until they can prove that they have enough justification to start testing on humans. Then they have to get it approved for testing by the FDA.

(m)\n\nAn infusion pump or perfusor infuses fluids, medication or nutrients into a patient's circulatory system. It is generally used intravenously, although subcutaneous, arterial and epidural infusions are occasionally used.\n\nInfusion pumps can administer fluids in ways that would be impractically expensive or unreliable if performed manually by nursing staff. For example, they can administer as little as 0.1 mL per hour injections (too small for a drip), injections every minute, injections with repeated boluses requested by the patient, up to maximum number per hour (e.g. in patient-controlled analgesia), or fluids whose volumes vary by the time of day.\n\nBecause they can also produce quite high but controlled pressures, they can inject controlled amounts of fluids subcutaneously (beneath the skin), or epidurally (just within the surface of the central nervous system- a very popular local spinal anesthesia for childbirth).

Good grief, I just answered this about 4 minutes ago. Shots themselves do not damage the area of injection. It is the material that is being injected that causes the damage. Ordinary medications, innoculations, etc. given by a Doctor do not cause damage. Street drugs such as heroine, cause irreversible damage to the sight of injection. That is why IV drug users have track marks. Look at diabetics. They give themselves injections daily with no damage or signs that they have injected anything. If you are so worried and want such hard evidence perhaps you should talk to your doctor or some health care professional.

LAWYERS! That's why. If they used a dirty needle and the person died from anything other than the chemical injection, like an infection, then the gov't would get sued.  Basically it is in case anything goes wrong- that is why they are sterilized.

Any person that is registered at a facility like a hospital or a doctors office. Example: like a registered nurse or RN, LPN, DR., EMT (which stands for emergency medical team). People like this are allowed in any state over here in the United States to give an injection.  You can go to google and look up hospitals in the United States and click on one of our websites in your case Ohio, and see all the different people that can give injections (and are registered or in our case it's called licensing). \nHope this helps you.

normally no. but it will depend on the region and mass that has been taken along with the medicines that you are taking after the operation.\nanyway this is common to many patients which usually gets resolved spontanously with time.\ntake care ,\nmay god help you

Doctors have a God complex. The companies that make the medicines know how they should be taken and what the effects are if you don't. Always follow the medications instructions. Serious side effects can result if you don't. Death can be one of the side effects in some cases.
