Question 1 of 5

A nurse is providing teaching to a client about how to self-administer subcutaneous injections of enoxaparin. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale:
Correct
Answer: B. Ensure that the air bubble remains in the syringe.


Rationale: The presence of an air bubble in the syringe prevents medication leakage and ensures accurate dosing. It acts as a cushion, preventing the medication from leaking out before administration. Removing the air bubble may lead to medication wastage or incorrect dosing, impacting the effectiveness of the treatment.

Summary of other choices:
A: Injecting into the lateral thigh is not appropriate for enoxaparin, as it is typically injected into the abdomen.
C: Releasing the skin fold before injecting ensures proper insertion and absorption of the medication.
D: Rubbing the site after injection can cause bruising and discomfort, which is not recommended.
