Term: Intradermal Injection

Description:

An intradermal injection refers to a medical procedure in which a small amount of medication is administered directly into the dermis layer of the skin. It is commonly used for diagnostic purposes, such as tuberculin skin tests, or for administering certain vaccines. The intradermal route allows for a slower absorption of the medication compared to other injection techniques.

Sample Sentences:

  • The intradermal injection of the tuberculin purified protein derivative (PPD) is performed to test for tuberculosis infection.
