BD Vacutainer Blood Transfer Device

BD Vacutainer Blood Transfer Device - Case of 198

The BD Vacutainer® Blood Transfer Device is designed to provide a safer, more efficient way to transfer blood from a syringe into a collection tube or culture bottle. Unlike traditional methods that involve using a needle—an approach both risky and OSHA-prohibited—this device offers a needle-free solution that protects both the user and the sample.

To further support safety, the device features a female Luer adapter that connects securely to standard syringes. This design eliminates the need to remove the needle, which helps reduce the risk of accidental needlestick injuries. As a result, healthcare professionals can perform transfers with greater confidence and peace of mind.

In addition, the device is intended for single use, which helps prevent cross-contamination between patients. This one-time-use format supports infection control protocols and aligns with best practices in clinical safety. Moreover, it simplifies cleanup and reduces the need for reprocessing equipment.

The BD Vacutainer Blood Transfer Device, a sterile female luer adapter, allows for needleless specimen transfer from a syringe into evacuated blood collection tubes or blood culture bottle(s) and is designed to reduce the risk of needlestick injuries, while maintaining the specimen integrity required for accurate results.

Transfer Smarter. Safer. Needle-Free.

The BD Vacutainer® Blood Transfer Device also helps maintain specimen integrity. By minimizing exposure to air and reducing handling steps, it supports more accurate test results. This is especially important in diagnostic settings where precision and reliability are critical.

To make identification easier, the device includes a red-colored tip that clearly distinguishes it from other BD Vacutainer® holders. This visual cue helps prevent misuse and ensures that staff can quickly select the correct tool for the task at hand.

Ultimately, the BD Vacutainer® Blood Transfer Device combines safety, simplicity, and compliance in one compact solution. By reducing risks and supporting OSHA-recommended practices, it helps healthcare teams deliver high-quality care while protecting both patients and staff.

How to Use BD Vacutainer Blood Transfer Device

Prepare the Equipment: Start by gathering a sterile syringe filled with blood, the BD Vacutainer® Blood Transfer Device, and the appropriate evacuated blood collection tube. Make sure all components are within reach and ready for use.

Attach the Device: Next, connect the female Luer adapter of the transfer device securely to the syringe. This creates a closed, needle-free system that helps protect against exposure.

Insert the Collection Tube: Gently insert the blood collection tube into the device. The vacuum inside the tube will automatically draw blood from the syringe—do not push the syringe plunger, as this may cause hemolysis or tube overfilling.

Monitor the Fill Level: Watch the tube as it fills. Once it reaches the desired volume, remove it and, if needed, insert the next tube. Repeat this step for multiple samples.

Disconnect and Dispose: After transferring all required samples, disconnect the device from the syringe. Dispose of the used transfer device and syringe in an approved sharps container, following your facility’s safety protocols.

Label and Finalize: Label each tube with the patient’s information, date, and time. Then, complete any required documentation and clean your workspace.
