Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collection of a blood specimen, as well as its handling and transport, are key factors in the accuracy of clinical laboratory analysis and ultimately in delivering quality patient care. NCCLS document H11-A3--Procedures for the Collection of Arterial Blood Specimens; Approved Standard--Third Edition serves a dual purpose: to reduce the potential hazard to the patient and to maintain the integrity of the arterial blood specimen. Collecting arterial blood is not only technically difficult but also imposes a degree of risk for the patient. Arterial blood is also one of the most sensitive of the specimens sent to the clinical laboratory for analysis; this standard will be particularly valuable to those involved in blood specimen collection such as clinical laboratory directors, physicians, physicians in training, nurses, respiratory therapists, medical technologists, exercise physiologists, phlebotomists, and perfusionists.
Download or read book WHO Guidelines on Drawing Blood written by Neelam Dhingra and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phlebotomy uses large, hollow needles to remove blood specimens for lab testing or blood donation. Each step in the process carries risks - both for patients and health workers. Patients may be bruised. Health workers may receive needle-stick injuries. Both can become infected with bloodborne organisms such as hepatitis B, HIV, syphilis or malaria. Moreover, each step affects the quality of the specimen and the diagnosis. A contaminated specimen will produce a misdiagnosis. Clerical errors can prove fatal. The new WHO guidelines provide recommended steps for safe phlebotomy and reiterate accepted principles for drawing, collecting blood and transporting blood to laboratories/blood banks.
