23.01.2022 2020 Sep 14. Variation of the Penetration Effort in an Artificial Tissue by Hypodermic Needles Abstract Fear of injection-related pain is a drawback to injectab...le therapy. Hypodermic injections are a cause for great anxiety and reduced adherence to the subcutaneous application of insulin for glycemic control in diabetics or in the treatment of multiple sclerosis, increasing the risk of complications and mortality. Injured or sick people have to undergo several daily injections, forcing them to rotate the veins and regions used to recover from the trauma caused by the perforation of the skin, tissue, muscles, veins, and arteries. People who suffer from type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) need to have their glycemic control 3 to 5 times a day and to take insulin up to 3 times a day. In both cases, the patient needs to perforate the skin. To quantify the pain perceived by the patients depends on the evaluation of each patient and therefore is subjective. This study aims to understand the application and self-application of hypodermic injections and decrease pain during its application and the phobia of the patient, following the reasoning that the lower the effort to penetrate the needle, the less trauma in the tissue and therefore the pain provoked. For that, it was analyzed how some of the characteristics of the needle can influence the sensation of pain in the injection. The needle penetration effort was measured in an artificial tissue (substitute skin model) for different cannula diameters, roughness, depth of penetration, lubrication, and angles of the perforating tip bevel. This study aimed to find alternatives to facilitate the application and self-application of hypodermic injections, increase safety and comfort, and reduce the pain intensity perceived by the patient. To do this, the bevel of needles used repeatedly was analyzed in the profile projector and SEM to verify the loss of the profile or the formation of burrs that could hamper the penetration or traumatize the tissue during the reuse of needles. It has also been mechanically analyzed, which can be done to prevent that the needles used in the subcutaneous application do not inadvertently reach the muscle. The greater penetration effort observed in the needles with greater angle of the bevel is responsible for the patient's perception of pain. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7527890/ See more

Preheat the oven to 400 F (204 C). 2. Using a new paper towel, pat each zucchini to get all the excess moisture off. Spray a cooking sheet with cooking olive oil spray and place the first layer of zucchini down facing the same direction if possible. For a second layer, put down in the opposite direction like a criss-cross effect. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes. 3. While the zucchini is baking, dice the chicken breast into small pieces. Put the olive oil and chicken in a fry pan to brown. Pepper and garlic to taste. Cook the chicken until done. 4. In a large bowl, mix the egg, ricotta/cottage cheese, Italian seasoning, and 1/4 tsp garlic. 5. When the zucchini comes out, change the temperature of the oven to 375F/ 190C. 6.
