@RCPbob I agree, there is no reason to aspirate an SQ injection. Aspiration is usually IV- to make sure you are in the vein. At a 45 degree angle into fat, you are not really aiming for anything

Thanks

@RCPbob Aspirate is ok, I think. Except for insulin and heparin. It's based on what I've read.

@nena0377 u dun need to aspirate for subcut, becouse u r injecting in fat layer...u will not hit any blood stream . ONly IMI becouse it is way more deeper....

Aspiration is on all injections except on such as TBs
-
@Val1436 aspiration is only for intramuscular injektions. if you do it right, that lump of skin you squeeze together, cant make the needle go much further then SC each way of injection has their special needle..

well if you don`t aspirate then how are you going to know if you are in the right area
-
Actually, aspirating during Subcu depends on the medication given.
you don't aspirate a sub Q injection.
