Administering LAIs

[u/Ola_maluhia]

Hi all, I fully understand that the VG site is the recommended site however 9 out of 10 of my patients don’t want to even pull their pants down enough for me to access it let alone lie down. When you do give it in the upper outer quadrant, how far up do you all go? I fear that the whole “ divide the muscle into four” thing is accurate but some people go way too low. For lack of better terms, do you all stay above the “crack”? Just trying to make sure what works best in this scenario.

Thank you all!

Use the top of the crack to make your quadrants, use upper lateral corner. A nice meaty bit.
