Injections, Jet
Spanish: Inyecciones a Chorro
Description
Jet injections are a method of delivering medication through the skin using a high-pressure jet of liquid. This technique eliminates the need for needles, making it a less invasive option for vaccinations and other injections.
Interpreter Notes
Interpreters should be aware that patients may refer to jet injections using different terms, such as 'inyecciones sin aguja' (needle-free injections) or 'inyecciones a presión' (pressure injections), which are colloquial. It is important to maintain the formal terminology 'Inyecciones a Chorro' in clinical contexts to avoid confusion.
Example Sentences
EN: The clinic offers Jet injections as a painless alternative for vaccinations.
ES: La clínica ofrece inyecciones a chorro como una alternativa indolora para las vacunaciones.
Common Interpreter Mistakes
