Answer to Question 1

Collection of a quality blood sample for coagulation studies requires a clean, atraumatic
technique. Inadvertent trauma to vessels or blood during collection will activate the clotting
cascade and induce platelet adhesion, thus rendering the sample useless. To minimize trauma,
a two-syringe technique is used. This technique involves collecting 1 cc of blood and then
exchanging syringes while the needle remains in the vessel. Once the second syringe has been
attached to the original needle, the sample is collected.

recommended for blood draws.
