Detailed explanation-1: -For administration of intravenous drugs, the vein chosen should be one of the superficial veins of the dorsal digital plexus or the distal forearm.
Detailed explanation-2: -An intravenous (IV) injection is an injection of a medication or another substance into a vein and directly into the bloodstream. It is one of the fastest ways to get a drug into the body. IV administration involves a single injection followed by the insertion of a thin tube or catheter into a vein.
Detailed explanation-3: -Since an IV delivers fluid directly into the bloodstream, it is the most efficient way to rehydrate the body. IV hydration is commonly used to manage hydration levels during surgery as well as to rehydrate patients who have lost fluids due to illness or excessive physical activity.
