An individual who contracts hepatitis B from an accidental stick with a contaminated needle is an example of an infection initiated via the parenteral route.
The process of gaining an infectious agent into one's body by a channel other than the gastrointestinal route is known as parenteral transmission. Generally, this phrase is used to distinguish pathogens that spread through enteric routes, such as fecal-oral and food- or water-borne illnesses. Parenteral transmission can occur through the respiratory system, circulation, urine, or vaginal tract, or even through more uncommon passageways like the eyes, ears, or umbilicus. In some disease transmission models, parenteral transmission is only possible through skin penetration. Subcutaneous, intramuscular, and intravenous methods of delivery are examples of parenteral routes.
