How to fill out BD Vacutainer tubes and needles:

Gather all necessary materials:

1. BD Vacutainer tubes and needles
2. Alcohol swabs
3. Gloves
4. Patient identification labels
5. Sharps container

Choose the appropriate needle and tube for the required blood collection:

Different colors correspond to different additives or purposes. Ensure you select the right tube for the specific blood test.

1. Wash your hands thoroughly and put on gloves for personal protection.

Properly identify the patient:

Check the patient's identification details to ensure they match the labels and requisition form. Confirm the name, date of birth, and medical record number.

Prepare the patient for the blood draw:

1. Explain the procedure to the patient and address any concerns they may have.
2. Position the patient's arm in a comfortable and accessible position, preferably extended and palm up.

Locate the appropriate vein in the patient's arm:

Apply a tourniquet a few inches above the intended puncture site, ensuring it is tight enough to occlude the vein but loose enough to allow easy insertion.

Cleanse the puncture site:

Use an alcohol swab to clean the site in a circular motion, starting from the inside and moving to the outside. Allow the area to air dry completely.

Assemble the Vacutainer needle onto the tube:

Firmly push the Vacutainer needle onto the hub of the tube until it is securely attached.

Perform the venipuncture:

1. While holding the patient's arm steady, position the needle bevel-side up at a 15-30 degree angle.
2. Enter the vein smoothly and quickly, maintaining control and observing proper blood flow into the tube.
3. Once blood flow is established, adjust the angle to a shallower position (5-15 degrees).

Fill the tubes accordingly:

1. Tubes should be filled in the correct order as specified by the laboratory.
2. Engage the safety mechanism on the Vacutainer needle after blood collection.

Remove the needle and apply pressure:

1. Remove the tourniquet before withdrawing the needle.
2. Apply gentle pressure to the puncture site using a gauze pad to prevent bleeding.

Properly label the tubes:

1. Label each tube with the patient's identification details, including name, date of birth, and medical record number.
2. Ensure the labels remain securely attached to the tubes.

Dispose of materials safely:

Place the used needle and tube into a sharps container following proper disposal guidelines.
