intraarticular injection Explanation: If you administer bupivocaine via the intraarterial route you most certainly will kill the patient because of cardiac arrest! In this context "i.a." means intraarterial - in other words: because of the knee damage they administered bupivacaine into the joint on the medial side. And they also recommended arthroscopy. That is standard procedure in knee trauma if somewhat major damage is suspected clinically. 20+ years experience as a surgeon ;-)) |

Carbostesin i.a. medial Explanation: I think you can leave it as it is in the source text. "Carbostesin" is the brand name of bupivAcaine and "i.a." and "medial" are Latin, which every doctor understands.
