[q]Big bottom may stop injections working effectively
JOHN VON RADOWITZ
INJECTIONS may not work on some people as their bottoms are too big, researchers have found.
Many vaccines and other medications are administered by a jab in the rear. But doctors have found that needles cannot penetrate the excess bottom fat of many patients, particularly women. To be effective, the drug has to be injected into the underlying muscle.
Dr Victoria Chan, who led the research at the Adelaide and Meath Hospital in Dublin, Ireland, said: "Our study has demonstrated that a majority of people, especially women, are not getting the proper dosage from injections to the buttocks. There is no question that obesity is the underlying cause."
Dr Chan's team recruited 50 patients, aged 21 to 87, who were due to have computed tomography scans of the abdomen and pelvis. Before the examinations, the patients had a small air bubble injected into their buttocks using a standard needle.
The researchers analysed the CT images to determine the location of the air bubble. They found that the success rate of the jabs was only 8 per cent in women - meaning that 23 out of 25 women did not receive an injection into the muscle. In men, the success rate was 56 per cent.
Just 32 per cent of the total group of patients had injections that delivered the air bubble correctly.
