It features a 23-gauge (blue-coded) ultra-thin, ¾″ needle connected to 12″ of flexible, kink-resistant tubing. The set includes a standard Luer adapter for attaching vacuum tube holders or syringes, enabling closed-system blood sampling. A passive safety shield snaps over the needle immediately after withdrawal (audible “click”) to lock and cover the needle, greatly reducing the risk of accidental needlesticks. The product is packaged sterile and is \u003cstrong\u003elatex-free\u003c\/strong\u003e (no natural rubber latex) and \u003cstrong\u003eDEHP\/PVC-free\u003c\/strong\u003e for patient safety. Its \u003cstrong\u003eflexible wings\u003c\/strong\u003e give clinicians a sturdy grip for accurate needle placement, and can be taped to the patient’s skin to hold the needle securely in place during the draw. Because of its smaller gauge and shorter needle, this winged blood collection set is especially gentle and well-tolerated, minimizing pain and anxiety for patients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike rigid syringe needles, the winged design can \u003cstrong\u003efacilitate draws on fragile or difficult veins\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003cem\u003e“Winged blood collection sets…can facilitate blood specimen collections when larger quantities of blood are needed, when the patient’s veins are fragile or difficult to access”\u003c\/em\u003e. Clinicians often use these butterfly sets for pediatric and geriatric patients, or anyone with rolling or easily collapsible veins, because the clinician can pinch the wings as a handle to steady the needle during insertion. The ultra-sharp 23G needle reduces trauma and quickly draws blood into the tube with minimal hemolysis. The \u003cstrong\u003etransparent tubing and hub\u003c\/strong\u003e allow immediate visualization of the blood “flash” to confirm vein access before tube collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis complete phlebotomy kit meets clinical standards for \u003cstrong\u003elaboratory and diagnostic use\u003c\/strong\u003e. It’s ideal for routine blood tests (CBC, chemistry, serology, blood bank, etc.) as well as specialized collections like blood cultures, and can even be used for \u003cstrong\u003eshort-term IV infusions of fluids or medications\u003c\/strong\u003e. The integrated Luer adapter provides a secure, closed-system connection to Vacutainer®-style tube holders, which helps prevent spills or contamination when filling multiple tubes. Because each set is pre-packaged sterile and disposable, it supports strict infection control – there is no need for on-site sterilization and each needle is discarded after one use. In summary, this Henry Schein winged blood collection set combines \u003cstrong\u003epatient comfort\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eclinician control\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003esafety\u003c\/strong\u003e in one comprehensive phlebotomy solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUses and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVenipuncture for Blood Sampling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed for drawing blood in hospitals, clinics, laboratories, blood banks and outpatient settings.
