In this video the pathology collector takes blood from the patient.

1. Wipe the site better
2. Do not retouch after wiping
3. That sodium citrate tube did not look full
4. Invert tubes after drawing them.
5. Do not ask patients to hold broken plastic containers with hazardous sharp bits.

Wipe inside to out with circles. Don’t touch the area with the gloved finger. You can touch it though if you wipe the finger on the alcohol pad.

no no no !! always wipe the site at least 3x, NEVER retouch a venipuncture site, and always have the blood collection tube ready as soon as the needle is in

Tourniquet is there to engorge the veins to make blood flow better. You release it after you're done to equalize pressure and minimize bleeding at the site. Also, barely wiped the site. A lot of incorrect techniques.

After you wipe the area you aren’t supposed to touch it

We never give the patient to hold the article. Sometimes the patient is afraid of getting a needle prick, there is a possibility that the patient may drop objects. and your articles got dirty.

I did this this is probably the best way to extract blood it hurts a bit more than doing by finger but the finger takes 10 times to get the blood needed to test the blood

I was taught to clean the site from the inside and move out in a circular motion and to never touch it after wiping but I always see ppl doing this for some reason

Supposed to wipe center out in a clockwise fashion and let it dry before inserting the needle. 😂

[Bonbonita]

Aiyoo..I never seen like this before, the patient need to hold the things that you need 😅

I thought that you need a separate tray for sterile accessories, such as minimum 2 sterile needles, swabs, and the kidney dish is meant for containing used swabs, etc.

[fcknluke]

Why did you throw the vials so aggressively, will literally cause hemolysis

[rederickfroders]

Its that easy! Im not afraid of needles anymore

[mattazarakhshi]

You need to change your kidney dish, it is broken and it is clinically dangerous for you and patient
