Subcutaneous injections are administered into the adipose tissue layer just below the skin. Drugs absorbed here have a slow, sustained rate of absorption. Various body sites can be used including the upper arm, abdomen, thigh, and back. The amount of subcutaneous tissue and needle length should be considered when choosing the injection site and needle angle. Generally, no more than 1 mL of medication is given subcutaneously and aspiration before injection is not necessary.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Anti-ulcer drugs are medications used to prevent and treat ulcers in the stomach and upper part of the small intestine (duodenal ulcers). These ulcers are often caused by an imbalance between stomach acid and the mucosal lining, which protects the stomach lining.
||Scope: Overview of various classes of anti-ulcer drugs, their mechanisms of action, indications, side effects, and clinical considerations.
Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

2. • Subcutaneous injections are administered into the
adipose tissue layer just below the epidermis and dermis.
• This tissue has few blood vessels, so drugs administered
here have a slow, sustained rate of absorption into the
capillaries.
3.
4. • It is important to choose the right equipment to ensure
depositing the medication into the intended tissue layer
and not the underlying muscle.
• Review the specifics of the particular medication before
administrating it to the patient.
5. • Various sites may be used for subcutaneous injections,
including:
• the outer aspect of the upper arm,
• the abdomen (from below the costal margin to the iliac
crests),
• the anterior aspects of the thigh,
• the upper back,
• the upper ventral gluteal area.
6. • Absorption rates are different from the different sites.
Injections in the abdomen are absorbed most rapidly,
absorbed somewhat slower from the arms, even slower
from the thighs, and slowest from the upper ventral
gluteal areas
9. • Subcutaneous injections are administered at a 45- to 90-
degree angle.
• Choose the angle of needle insertion based on the amount
of subcutaneous tissue present and the length of the
needle.
• Choose the needle length based on the amount of
subcutaneous tissue present, based on the patient’s body
weight and build.
10.
11. • Generally, insert the shorter, 3⁄8-inch needle at a 90-
degree angle and the longer, 5⁄8-inch needle at a 45-
degree angle.
• Recommendations differ regarding pinching or
bunching of a skin fold for administration.
12.
13. • Pinching is advised for thinner patients and when a
longer needle is used, to lift the adipose tissue away from
underlying muscle and tissue.
• If pinching is used, once the needle is inserted, release the
skin to avoid injecting into compressed tissue.
14. • Aspiration, or pulling back on the plunger to check that
a blood vessel has been entered, is not necessary and has
not proved to be a reliable indicator of needle placement.
The likelihood of injecting into a blood vessel is small
15.
16.
17. • The American Diabetes Association (2004) has stated that
routine aspiration is not necessary when injecting insulin.
• Aspiration is definitely contraindicated with
administration of heparin because this action can result
in hematoma formation.
18.
19. • Usually, no more than 1 mL of solution is given
subcutaneously.
• Giving larger amounts adds to the patient’s discomfort
and may predispose to poor absorption.
20. EQUIPMENT
• Prescribed medication
• Sterile syringe and needle.
• Needle size depends on the medication administered and
patient body type.
• Antimicrobial swab
• Disposable gloves
• Small gauze square
• Medication Administration Record (MAR)
• PPE, as indicated
21. ASSESSMENT
• Assess the patient for any allergies.
• Check expiration date before administering medication.
• Assess the appropriateness of the drug for the patient.
• Verify patient name, dose, route, and time of
administration.
• Review assessment and laboratory data that may
influence drug administration.
22. • Assess the site on the patient where the injection is to be
given.
• Avoid sites that are bruised, tender, hard, swollen,
inflamed, or scarred. These conditions could affect
absorption or cause discomfort and injury.
• Assess the patient’s knowledge of the medication.
• If the patient has deficient knowledge about the
medication, this may be the appropriate time to begin
education about it.
23. • If the medication may affect the patient’s vital signs,
assess them before administration.
• If the medication is for pain relief, assess the patient’s
pain before and after administration.
24. Injections which are administered into the adipose tissue
