What does IV stand for?

  1. Immediate verification

  2. International version

  3. Intravenous

  4. Internal void

The correct answer is: Intravenous

IV stands for Intravenous. This option is correct because Intravenous refers to a method of administering drugs or fluids through a vein. The other options are incorrect because - Immediate verification is not a common or well-known term used in the medical field. - International version does not make sense in the context of IV administration. - Internal void is not a common term used in the medical field.
