The act of introducing or otherwise applying a substance to the subject.

Discussion: The effect of the substance is typically established on a biochemical basis, however, that is not a requirement. For example, radiotherapy can largely be described in the same way, especially if it is a systemic therapy such as radio-iodine. This class also includes the application of chemical treatments to an area.

Examples: Chemotherapy protocol; Drug prescription; Vaccination record
