How to Use BD Vacutainer Blood Transfer Device

Prepare the Collection Site: Begin by draining any urine from the catheter tubing and clamping it just below the sample port. This helps ensure a fresh sample for testing.

Clean the Sample Port: Next, scrub the Luer-Lok™ sample port thoroughly with an antiseptic wipe. Allow it to dry completely before proceeding to reduce contamination risk.

Attach the Access Device: Twist the BD Vacutainer® Luer-Lok™ Access Device onto the sample port until it locks securely in place. This creates a closed, needle-free system for safe collection.

Insert the Collection Tube: Gently push the appropriate BD Vacutainer® tube into the device. The vacuum in the tube will automatically draw the sample—no need to apply pressure.

Mix and Remove: Once filled, remove the tube and gently invert it 8–10 times if it contains preservatives. If more samples are needed, repeat the process with new tubes.

Final Steps and Disposal: After collecting all samples, unclamp the catheter tubing. Then, remove the access device and discard it in a sharps container. Label each tube and send them to the lab as per your facility’s protocol.
