    Thank you for these videos!
    I'm a nursing student in germany and there has been a change of the curriculum shortly before I started. I've almost finished my second year now and anything related to medical procedures, pharmaceuticals, wounds, etc. is entirely missing. The focus lays entirely on different nursing-models, how expert-standards are being made (not even discussing what it actually says inside of them.... we only focus on the process of how an expert-standard is developed), communication-models, narrative interviews, etc... In other words: There is absolutely ZERO preparation for anything that would actually be important when working.
    It's sad to consider that we haven't even talked about subcutaneous Injection yet, despite sc-injections of Insulin, Heparin, Enoxaparin, etc. are everyday tasks, that everyone should be able to easily handle.
    I'm lucky that I have a massive interest in medicine, mostly anything regarding injection, IV, anaesthesiology, and pharmaceuticals which makes it less of an issue for me personally. To be entirely honest, since I haven't had the opportunity of trying out these things in patients (since we aren't allowed to do anything we didn't cover in school...... so basically nothing...), I've opted more and more towards self-trials, which probably aren't without risk. I've tried essentially all kinds of s.c., injections, tried many I.M. injections in many different muscle-parts, drew my own blood samples, etc. The only thing I couldn't bring myself to do yet is trying direkt I.V. injections
    but those who aren't spending many hours a day looking at medical stuff in their free time have massive issues whenever we have a short practical phase where we actually need to work in different parts of the hospital.

    Pinching for a injection can cause more trauma, also the closer to the belly bottom you inject the more PIP you will have. I did trt intramuscular for a long time before I started subq and it's so much more less invasive. Just above my hip and glute are my go to locations.

      Individuals may have varying pain thresholds and preferences for injection sites and techniques, so working closely with your healthcare provider to find the most comfortable and effective method for your TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) is crucial. They can provide guidance on proper injection practices and help ensure you are receiving the optimal treatment for your needs.

    This is great, but I was taught to aspirate and then push the meds in 😅😅

      Hi! 😊 Great question! The current guideline recommends not aspirating for SubQ injections, as it’s generally not necessary, and it helps reduce discomfort. Thanks for sharing, and don’t forget to subscribe for more tips! 🙌💉
