When delivering blood samples to a laboratory they should always be transported inside?
There are many blood sample tubes. The most basic one would be the Red top tube (red top blood sample tube). Or the Light Blue coagulation tube - NOTE: If coag tests only are ordered AND you are using a butterfly, draw a discard tube to collect the air in the tubing. Failure to do so will result in a short draw which will be rejected by the lab. The blood samples can be delivered to the lab in these (tube) containers.
