    This document provides instructions for performing venous blood sampling, also called phlebotomy. It defines venous blood sampling as pricking a vein with a syringe and vacuum to draw blood. The purpose is to obtain blood samples for laboratory tests requiring large volumes. The procedure involves gathering equipment, washing hands, finding a suitable vein, applying a tourniquet, cleaning the site, inserting the needle at a 30 degree angle, filling sample bottles, releasing the tourniquet, applying pressure and a dressing, labeling samples, and sending them to the lab.

    4. Alcoholic Cotton
    5. Vacuum Tube 6. Gauze Pads
    7. Plaster
    PROCEDURE
    1. Gather equipment

    Collect all equipment needed for the procedure and place it within reach on a tray
    or trolley, ensuring that all the items are clearly visible.
    2. Wash hands
    (use alcohol gel or soap and water if
    your hands are visibly soiled)

    3. Position the patients arm in a


    comfortable extended position that provides
    adequate exposure of the planned
    venepuncture area.
    4. Inspect the
    antecubital fossa or
    forearm for a suitable
    vein
    (it should ideally be visible without applying
    the tourniquet)

    5. Apply the
    tourniquet about 4-5
    finger widths above the
    planned venepuncture
    site
    6. Palpate the vein

    Choose a vein has a sizeable lumen and feels springy.


    Tapping a vein gently can make it easier to visualise and feel.

    7. Wash hands again


    7. Don gloves
    (gloves dont need to be worn for
    cleaning the site, but they should
    always be donned prior to
    performing venepuncture itself)

    8. Clean the site


    with an alcohol swab for
    30 seconds and then
    allow to dry completely
    over 30 seconds
    9. Insert the needle through the skin at a 30-degree angle
    or less, with the bevel facing upwards
    (you should see flashback and feel a decrease in resistance as the needle enters the
    vein)

    10. Advance the needle a further 1-2 mm into the vein after
    flashback is seen.
    11. Lower and anchor the needle to the patients skin.
    12. Fill the blood sample bottles by attaching each in turn to
    the collection system.
    14. Release the tourniquet

    15. Withdraw the needle and


    then apply gentle pressure to
    the site with some gauze or
    cotton wool
    15. Apply a dressing to the
    patients arm
    (cotton wool / gauze / plaster)

    16. Discard the used


    equipment into the
    appropriate waste bin
    17.Complete the patient
    details on the blood
    sample bottles at the
    bedside
    (either pre-printed labels or handwritten).

    18. Send the blood


    samples to the lab
    for analysis in an
    appropriate plastic leak-
    proof bag with the
    completed
    laboratory request form.
