Using a syringe needle to transfer venous blood to a blood collection tube or blood culture bottle is both a dangerous procedure and an OSHA-prohibited practice. The BD Vacutainer® blood transfer device is designed with healthcare workers' safety in mind. This latex-free, single-use device reduces the risk of transfer-related injuries while maintaining the specimen integrity required for accurate disease diagnosis.
