| insulin injection | A preparation that may contain 20, 40, 80, 100, or 500 USP insulin units per ml, although the trend is toward standardizing all insulin preparations at 100 units per ml; it is administered subcutaneously, occasionally intravenously, and has a rapid onset of action, has a brief duration (5 to 7 hours), and is compatible for mixing with long-acting insulin preparations; used in the treatment of diabetic acidosis and insulin coma. Synonym: regular insulin injection. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intracytoplasmic sperm injection | <gynaecology> The direct injection of a single sperm into an egg. (09 Oct 1997) |
| intramuscular injection | <technique> A technique to deliver a medication into muscle tissue for its eventual absorption into the systemic circulation. Smaller volume intramuscular injections may be given into the deltoid, but larger volumes are usually given into the gluteus muscle. (27 Sep 1997) |
| intrathecal injection | Injection of drugs into the spinal fluid to prevent or treat CNS leukaemia or lymphoma. (13 Nov 1997) |
| intravenous injection | <pharmacology> The giving of drugs into a vein through a syringe. (30 Mar 1998) |
| intraventricular injection | The introduction of materials for diffusion throughout the ventricular and subarachnoid space by means of ventricular puncture. (05 Mar 2000) |
| test injection | Intravenous injection of a few milliliters of radiographic contrast medium to screen for allergic or idiosyncratic responses. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jet injection | Hypodermic injection of drugs by a jet injector. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Z-tract injection | A technique in which the skin and subcutaneous tissue are displaced laterally before inserting the needle intramuscularly; used to prevent leakage along the track of the needle and consequent tissue irritation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| flow injection analysis | The analysis of a chemical substance by inserting a sample into a carrier stream of reagent using a sample injection valve that propels the sample downstream where mixing occurs in a coiled tube, then passes into a flow-through detector and a recorder or other data handling device. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lactated Ringer's injection | A sterile solution of calcium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium chloride, and sodium lactate in water for injection; used intravenously as a systemic alkaliser and a fluid and electrolyte replenisher. (05 Mar 2000) |
| blood pressure, high | High blood pressure (hypertension) is a repeatedly elevated blood pressure exceeding 140 over 90 mmHg. High blood pressure is also called the silent killer. Chronically high blood pressure can cause blood vessel changes in the back of the eye (retina), thickening of the heart muscle, kidney failure, and brain damage. No specific cause for high blood pressure is found in 95% of patients. High blood pressure is treated with salt restriction, regular aerobic exercise, and medications. (12 Dec 1998) |
| blood sugar, high | Elevated levels of blood glucose (hyperglycaemia) can be found in a number of conditions. The hyperglycaemia leads to spillage of glucose into the urine, hence the term sweet urine. (Diabetes mellitus means sweet urine. ) (12 Dec 1998) |
| cardiac output, high | A state of elevated cardiac output. Conditions that lower peripheral vascular resistance, such as anaemia, arteriovenous fistulas, thyrotoxicosis, and pregnancy, are among the most important factors augmenting the venous return and therefore elevating cardiac output. Increased cardiac output also occurs in muscular exercise, fever, and severe anoxia. (12 Dec 1998) |
