BD® Critical Care Blood Collection offers safety, simplicity and diagnostic reliability
The BD Preset™ Syringe is offered with and without a pre-attached Eclipse™ needle and is specifically designed to be able to preset a desired volume but permits aspiration when necessary. It also includes a venting system that expels residual air through the self-venting membrane (as blood fills the syringe), which ensures rapid filling.
The BD A-Line™ Syringe is specifically designed for aspiration of blood samples from arterial lines4
BD® Critical Care Blood Collection Syringes are spray coated with calcium-balanced lithium heparin to minimize the occurrence of sample clotting while maintaining sample volume and stability.5
BD Preset™ and A-Line™ can be used to test several critical care analytes, including: pO2, pCO2, glucose, BUN, lactate, creatinine, hemoglobin, hematocrit, pH and electrolytes (Na, K, iCa, Cl)2,3
