In Roman numerals, it is the number 4. In medical terms, it means intra-venous- something that is put into a vein of the body. Perhaps the most common application for this is administering fluids intravenously. A bag or bottle of fluid is connected to a needle by a tube, and the needle inserted into a vein. Fluid then drips and goes into the vein. Can be used to give fluids to someone that cannot drink, or to administer medicines mixed in the IV fluid.

Intraveneous. It uses the first letters of the main parts of the word, the prefix Intra-, and Venous which refers to venous blood vessels.
