The purpose of this book is to help you learn proper phlebotomy and EKG procedures and understand the whys of phlebotomy procedures. Many times, as a patient, I have observed phlebotomy techniques, and I would ask the phlebotomist, “What is the reason for drawing the tubes in that order?” I would get either no reply or “I’m not sure.” Now don’t get me wrong. I have met many technicians who have great skills, but some cannot explain the most important question—why? If you were asked to eat fish once a week, and you ask why, and the only answer you get is because it’s good for you, well, I’m sorry but where is the why? In the same vein here, why do you draw the tubes in a certain order? When using my book, you will also be able to link onto my website as an interactive guide. So what are we waiting for? Let’s begin.

Phlebotomy uses large, hollow needles to remove blood specimens for lab testing or blood donation. Each step in the process carries risks - both for patients and health workers. Patients may be bruised. Health workers may receive needle-stick injuries. Both can become infected with bloodborne organisms such as hepatitis B, HIV, syphilis or malaria. Moreover, each step affects the quality of the specimen and the diagnosis. A contaminated specimen will produce a misdiagnosis. Clerical errors can prove fatal. The new WHO guidelines provide recommended steps for safe phlebotomy and reiterate accepted principles for drawing, collecting blood and transporting blood to laboratories/blood banks.
