    What angle do you inject a needle for intradermal

    • A.

      20 degrees

    • B.

      15 degrees

    • C.

      45 degrees

    Correct Answer
    B. 15 degrees
    Explanation
    The correct angle to inject a needle for intradermal is 15 degrees. This angle is used because it allows the needle to be inserted just below the surface of the skin, into the dermis layer. Injecting at a steeper angle could result in the needle going too deep and causing injury or not reaching the desired layer. Injecting at a shallower angle may not deliver the medication or substance effectively. Therefore, a 15-degree angle is the most appropriate for intradermal injections.

    • C.

      45 degrees

    Correct Answer
    C. 45 degrees
    Explanation
    When injecting a needle for Sub-Q (subcutaneous) administration, it is recommended to inject at a 45-degree angle. This angle allows for proper delivery of the medication into the subcutaneous tissue, which is the fatty layer just below the skin. Injecting at a 45-degree angle helps ensure that the medication is absorbed effectively and avoids any potential damage to underlying muscles or blood vessels.

    What angle do you inject a needle for  IM

    • A.

      90 degrees

    • B.

      15 degrees

    • C.

      45 degrees

    Correct Answer
    A. 90 degrees
    Explanation
    When administering an intramuscular (IM) injection, the needle should be inserted at a 90-degree angle. This angle allows for the needle to penetrate deep enough into the muscle tissue to ensure proper absorption of the medication. Injecting at a 90-degree angle helps to minimize the risk of injecting the medication into subcutaneous tissue, which could lead to slower absorption and potentially less effective results.

    Epinephrine is referred to as adrenaline & causes

    • A.

      Vasodilation/ bronchoconstriction

    • B.

      Vasoconstriction/ bronchodilation

    • C.

      Anaphylatic shock

    Correct Answer
    B. Vasoconstriction/ bronchodilation
    Explanation
    Epinephrine, also known as adrenaline, causes vasoconstriction and bronchodilation. Vasoconstriction refers to the narrowing of blood vessels, which increases blood pressure and reduces blood flow to certain areas of the body. Bronchodilation, on the other hand, refers to the relaxation and widening of the airways in the lungs, allowing for easier breathing. These effects of epinephrine are beneficial in emergency situations such as anaphylactic shock, where it helps to improve blood flow and open up the airways to prevent respiratory distress.

    Occurs through the administration of a vaccine that contains an antigen

    • A.

      Artificially aquired active immunity

    • B.

      Naturally aquired active immunity

    • C.

      Naturally aquired passive immunity

    Correct Answer
    A. Artificially aquired active immunity
    Explanation
    Artificially acquired active immunity occurs when a person is vaccinated with a vaccine that contains an antigen. The vaccine stimulates the immune system to produce an immune response, including the production of antibodies. This type of immunity is considered active because the person's immune system is actively involved in producing the immune response. It is acquired artificially because it is induced through the administration of a vaccine, rather than through natural exposure to the pathogen.

  • 18. 

    Occurs when the person is exposed to a live pathogen, develops the disease and becomes immune

    • A.

      Artificially aquired active immunity

    • B.

      Naturally aquired active immunity

    • C.

      Naturally aquired passive immunity

    Correct Answer
    B. Naturally aquired active immunity
    Explanation
    Naturally acquired active immunity occurs when a person is exposed to a live pathogen, develops the disease, and subsequently becomes immune. This means that the person's immune system recognizes the pathogen and produces an immune response, including the production of antibodies. As a result, the person becomes immune to the disease and is protected from future infections. This type of immunity is different from artificially acquired active immunity, which is achieved through vaccination, and naturally acquired passive immunity, which is obtained through the transfer of antibodies from another person or animal.

      Volume of material to be administered

    • D.

      All of the above

    Correct Answer
    D. All of the above
    Explanation
    When selecting a needle for injections, several factors should be considered. The size of the muscle is important because it determines the length of the needle needed to reach the desired depth. The thickness of the adipose tissue at the injection site is also crucial as it affects the needle gauge selection. A thicker adipose layer may require a longer or wider needle to ensure proper medication delivery. Additionally, the volume of material to be administered plays a role in needle selection. Larger volumes may require a larger needle to facilitate efficient and timely administration. Therefore, considering all of these factors is essential for selecting the appropriate needle for injections.
