Original Source: Sciatic nerve injury from intramuscular injection: a persistent and global problem.
Summary Background/Aims: An intramuscular (IM) injection into the buttock risks damaging the sciatic nerve. Safe injection practices need to be understood by doctors and nurses alike. The aims of this study were to determine if sciatic nerve injury because of IM injection is a continuing problem and to establish the availability of published guidelines on IM injection techniques. Methods: Intramuscular injection related sciatic nerve injury claims to the New Zealand Accident Compensation Corporation between...
