Several techniques are used in infusion therapy, including:
Peripheral IV Therapy: Involves inserting a catheter into a peripheral vein, usually in the hand or arm, for short-term therapy. Central Venous Therapy: Involves inserting a catheter into a large central vein, such as the subclavian or jugular vein, for long-term therapy. Subcutaneous Infusion: Involves administering medication into the subcutaneous tissue for slow, sustained absorption. Intraosseous Infusion: Used in emergencies, this involves injecting medication directly into the bone marrow.
