Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching a client about self-administering a subcutaneous injection to the abdomen. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Expel the air bubble in a prefilled syringe before injecting the medication. This step is crucial to prevent injecting air into the subcutaneous tissue, which can cause discomfort or harm. By expelling the air bubble, the client ensures they are only administering the intended medication.

A: Selecting an injection site on the abdomen 5 cm from the umbilicus is a generally accepted practice, but it is not the most critical instruction in this scenario.
C: Aspirating prior to injecting the medication is unnecessary for subcutaneous injections as there are no large blood vessels in the subcutaneous tissue.
D: Inserting the needle at a 15° angle is not a standard recommendation for subcutaneous injections, which are typically administered at a 45° or 90° angle.
