INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Open barrier bag using the tear notch on either right or left side of bag.

  1. Prepare venipuncture site with an appropriate antiseptic. Use your institution’s recommended procedure for standard venipuncture technique and sample collection.
  2. Remove needle shield.
  3. Perform venipuncture.
  4. Place tube in holder and push tube forward until tube stopper has been penetrated.
  5. Release tourniquet as soon as blood appears in tube.
  6. Wait until tube has filled to its stated volume and blood flow ceases.
  7. Pull tube off needle inside holder.
  8. Remove tube from holder.
  9. Mix immediately and gently 5 to 6 times by inverting the tube. One inversion is turning the tube upside-down and returning it to its upright position.
  1. Allow blood to clot for 5 minutes between 23° and 27°C (73-81°F).
  2. Centrifuge tubes at 1500 – 2000g for 10 minutes, at 2000g for 4 minutes, or at 4000g for 3 minutes between 23° and 27°C (73-81°F).

Note: Always follow your facility’s protocol for order of draw.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR REMOVAL OF BD HEMOGARD™CLOSURE

  1. Grasp the tube with one hand, placing the thumb under the BD Hemogard™ Closure (for added stability, place arm on a solid surface). With

the other hand, twist the BD Hemogard™ Closure while simultaneously pushing up with the thumb of the other hand ONLY UNTIL THE TUBE STOPPER IS LOOSENED.

  1. Move thumb away before lifting closure. DO NOT use thumb to push closure off the tube. If the tube contains blood, an exposure hazard exists.

To help prevent injury during removal, it is important that the thumb used to push upward on the closure be removed from contact

with the tube as soon as the BD Hemogard™ Closure is loosened.

  1. Lift closure off tube. In the unlikely event of the plastic shield separating from the rubber stopper, DO NOT REASSEMBLE CLOSURE. Carefully remove rubber stopper from tube
