Which statement indicates a caregiver needs further teaching about administering enoxaparin?

The correct statement indicating a caregiver needs further teaching is the one regarding expelling the air bubble before administering enoxaparin. This practice is typically discouraged with low molecular weight heparins like enoxaparin. Healthcare providers recommend that the caregiver should not expel the air bubble from the prefilled syringe before administration. This air bubble helps ensure that the full dose is delivered, preventing any potential loss of medication and reducing the risk of bruising.

The other statements reflect correct practices. Administering the injection in the abdomen is appropriate as it is the recommended injection site for enoxaparin due to better absorption. Monitoring for signs of bleeding is crucial because enoxaparin is an anticoagulant, increasing the risk of bleeding. Lastly, not rubbing the injection site after administration is important; rubbing can increase the risk of bruising and irritation at the injection site. Each of these details is essential in ensuring the safe and effective administration of enoxaparin.
