Which part of the needle allows for the flow of medication through its hollow bore?

The correct answer is the lumen. The lumen refers to the hollow interior space of the needle that allows for the flow of medication. When a syringe is attached to a needle, the liquid medication can travel through the lumen and be delivered to the desired site, whether it's intramuscular, subcutaneous, or intravenous.

The bevel is the angled tip of the needle that facilitates insertion and helps reduce tissue trauma during the injection. While it plays a crucial role in the initial entry into the tissue, it does not directly enable the flow of medication.

The hub is the part of the needle that connects it to the syringe. It serves as a secure attachment point but does not impact the flow of the medication itself.

The shaft is the long, slender part of the needle that connects the hub to the bevel. While the shaft is necessary for the needle's length and allows access to the tissue, again, it is the lumen, the space within this shaft, that directly allows for the movement of medication.
