faqFrequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How is the blood sample taken?

To take the blood sample, a tourniquet (elastic) band is placed tightly on the upper arm. The patient is asked to make a fist.

The needle is then inserted into the vein in the arm and the blood sample is collected in the vacutainer.
