Om man frågar Google om det går att omöjliggöra injektion i ytliga vener svarar Google att det är en riskfylld procedur men föreslår frätande. Men enligt Google injiceras den dömde på andra sätt om den normala vägen inte fungerar.
Citat:
Intentionally injecting caustic or irritating substances to cause superficial thrombophlebitis—a process akin to chemical phlebitis—causes uncontrolled inflammation and clotting. If someone attempts this, it does not simply neatly "close off" a vein; rather, it triggers severe clinical complications
• Alternative Medical Access Points: In legal, correctional, or medical contexts where intravenous access is required, the destruction of superficial arm veins does not prevent injections. Medical and legal protocols allow for alternative access points if superficial veins fail. These include central venous catheters (placed in large deep veins in the neck, chest, or groin), intraosseous lines (drilled directly into the bone marrow), or the use of ultrasound-guided deep vein access.
Många injicerade läkemedel kan också förstöra ytliga vener.
