The deltoid, located on the upper arm.
The proper injection site for the deltoid muscle is located in the mid-lateral aspect of the upper arm, approximately 2-3 fingerbreadths below the acromion process. This area is typically found in the center of the deltoid muscle, ensuring that the injection is administered into the muscle and not into the surrounding tissues. It's important to use a clean technique and to palpate the area to confirm the appropriate site.

When administering an intramuscular injection into the vastus lateralis muscle, position the patient in a supine or sitting position with their leg extended and relaxed. Ensure the knee is slightly flexed to help relax the thigh muscles. Locate the injection site by dividing the thigh into thirds, administering the injection into the middle third of the muscle, which is located on the outer side of the thigh. Always ensure proper aseptic technique and stabilization of the injection site during administration.
