An IV infusion is the supply of fluids or other liquid substrates through a vein. It is achieved by inserting a specialized needle into a vein and infusing fluids at a predetermined rate from a reservoir usually situated above the level of the body. By comparison, an intravenous injection is the supply of a considerably smaller volume of fluid or medication, but in a rapid manner, by means of a simple syringe (from WADA document http://www.wada-ama.org/rtecontent/document/intravenous_infusion_en.pdf.).
