Improving blood sample quality from IVC collection
The BD Vacutainer® Luer-Lok™ Access Device (LLAD) can replace other methods such as syringes and luer adapters, and can reduce haemolysis rates from 8.1% to 1.4%. (58 samples out of 716 to 9 samples out of 630)1. Combining the BD LLAD with a sterilised discard tube together with a partial draw tube reduces haemolysis further2.
Improving urine sample collection through Foley catheters
The BD Vacutainer® Luer-Lok™ Access Device enables the transfer of a urine sample directly from a Foley catheter to the Urinalysis/ Microbiology determination tube. This means fewer steps, less sample manipulation and reduced risk of contamination.3
Security of the threaded BD Luer-Lok™ mechanism helps ensure that a closed system is maintained. This allows sample integrity to be maintained and can help prevent microbial overgrowth or false positives.
