Observed anomalies at injection sites are insulin leakage, pain, bleeding, inflammation, bruising, lipoatrophy, and lipohypertrophy. Possible concerns regarding incorrect insulin application technique include greater insulin leakage and back flow. Reflux from the injection site is by far the most frequently reported type of leaking patients report. Incidence is variable and etiology is unclear. Leakage influences patients’ perception of insulin administration because patients are concerned whether they have received the correct dosage.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess10-Second Waiting TechniqueInsulin InjectionPrevents Any LeakageZ-Tracking TechniqueMay the z-tracking technique to prevent any leakage in insulin injection be an alternative to the 10-second waiting technique?Letter122537538289186502-s2.0-8504210947810.1177/1932296817730378Q1
