Question 1 of 5

When choosing a needle gauge for an intramuscular injection in a 12-year-old boy, which of the following gauges would you choose?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 22 gauge. A 22-gauge needle is recommended for school-age children, toddlers, and adolescents due to their muscle mass and tolerance. In infants, a smaller gauge (23-25) is preferred as their muscles are less developed and more sensitive.
Choice A, 27 gauge, is too thin for an intramuscular injection in a 12-year-old boy.
Choice B, 25 gauge, is more suitable for infants than for a 12-year-old.
Choice D, 20 gauge, is too thick and not typically used for intramuscular injections in children.
