Module 4

Patient Safety During Venipuncture

Apply the two-identifier rule before every draw, screen each site for AV fistula, mastectomy, active IV and skin integrity contraindications, keep tourniquet time under one minute to prevent hemoconcentration, and respond correctly to syncope, hematoma, nerve contact, arterial puncture, and needlestick exposure. Built for phlebotomy certification success.

Module 5

Critical Specimen Timing Mastery

Time every draw correctly: troughs immediately before the next dose and peaks 30 minutes after infusion, diurnal cortisol, iron and testosterone in the morning window, PTT centrifuged within one hour before platelet factor 4 neutralizes the heparin, lactate and ammonia on ice, and blood cultures at fever onset before antibiotics. Built for phlebotomy certification success.
