Through my years of experience in the field, I have realized that many underestimate the impact of a well-conducted blood draw. For example, if you’ve ever made a fist during a blood draw, you might not know that this action can raise your potassium readings, influencing your heart and blood pressure evaluations. The order in which blood collection tubes are filled—the “Order of Draw”—can prevent cross-contamination from different tube additives, leading to more accurate results.
Did you know how your sample is transported to the lab could impact the findings? Or that chewing gum before a draw can affect your results as if you had just eaten a cheeseburger?
