NEW QUESTION # 19
When performing a capillary collection, which of the following tubes should a phlebotomist collect last?
Answer: C
Explanation:
In capillary collection, the red tube should be collected last from the options listed. Capillary order of draw differs from venipuncture order of draw because capillary blood begins clotting quickly after puncture. Tubes containing anticoagulants are collected before serum tubes to prevent platelet clumping and microclot formation that could invalidate hematology or other additive-based testing. Lavender EDTA specimens are typically prioritized early because hematology testing requires well-mixed anticoagulated whole blood. Lithium heparin is also an additive tube and should be collected before a non-additive or serum specimen. Red tubes are generally serum tubes and are collected later because clotting is expected for serum production. Microhematocrit collection depends on the procedure and whether anticoagulated capillary tubes are used, but it is not the best answer for "last" in this item. The phlebotomist must also wipe away the first drop, avoid excessive squeezing, fill microcollection containers properly, and mix additive specimens immediately by gentle inversion. NHA CPT competencies include dermal puncture, capillary order of draw, microcollection devices, and specimen integrity. Reference topics: Routine Blood Collections; capillary collection; dermal puncture; microcollection order of draw.
NEW QUESTION # 20
A phlebotomist must recollect a blood sample after the initial sample was rejected by the laboratory. Which of the following factors might have caused the sample to be rejected?
Answer: C
Explanation:
An underfilled collection tube is a common reason for laboratory rejection because many tests require a specific blood-to-additive ratio. This is especially critical for coagulation specimens, where insufficient blood relative to anticoagulant can falsely prolong clotting results. Underfilling can also produce inadequate specimen volume for testing, repeat analysis, or instrument requirements. A hematoma at the puncture site is a patient complication and may indicate procedural difficulty, but it does not automatically require specimen rejection unless it affected specimen quality. Use of a multiple-sample needle is a standard venipuncture method and is not a rejection criterion by itself. The cephalic vein is an acceptable antecubital vein when selected appropriately, so using it does not invalidate the specimen. Processing accuracy begins at collection: correct tube, correct volume, correct mixing, correct labeling, and correct transport. The NHA CPT outline identifies preanalytical errors, minimum and maximum volume requirements, fill levels and ratios, maintaining specimen integrity, and recollection as core processing and collection competencies. Reference topics: Processing Specimens; preanalytical errors; tube fill level; specimen rejection and recollection.
NEW QUESTION # 21
Which of the following sites should a phlebotomist use as the second choice to perform venipuncture on an adult patient?
Answer: A
Explanation:
The cephalic vein is the second-choice vein for routine adult venipuncture. The median cubital vein is preferred first because it is usually large, well anchored, superficial, and located away from major nerves and arteries. If the median cubital vein is unavailable or unsuitable, the cephalic vein is typically selected next because it is generally accessible and safer than the basilic vein. The basilic vein is usually the last choice in the antecubital area because it lies closer to the brachial artery and median nerve, increasing the risk of serious complications if the needle placement is poor. The median antebrachial vein may be visible in the forearm but is not the standard second-choice site for routine venipuncture. Proper site selection is not cosmetic; it is risk control. The phlebotomist must evaluate vein size, depth, resilience, direction, and surrounding anatomy while avoiding sites with edema, hematoma, burns, scarring, IV lines, infection, or mastectomy restrictions. Reference topics: Routine Blood Collections; antecubital vein selection; median cubital, cephalic, and basilic veins; site safety.
NEW QUESTION # 22
A phlebotomist uses a point-of-care instrument to perform a prothrombin time/INR test on a patient that results in a critical value. Which of the following type of medication should the phlebotomist expect to see on the patient's medication list?
Answer: A
Explanation:
A prothrombin time/INR test evaluates the extrinsic and common coagulation pathways and is commonly used to monitor anticoagulant therapy, especially warfarin. Therefore, when a PT/INR point-of-care result is critically abnormal, the medication category most expected on the patient's list is anticoagulants. Anticoagulants interfere with clot formation and can prolong PT/INR values, creating an increased bleeding risk if outside the therapeutic range. Opioids are analgesics and do not directly monitor through PT/INR. Antidiabetics are associated with glucose monitoring, not coagulation testing. Statins are lipid-lowering medications and are usually monitored through lipid panels and liver-related considerations, not PT/INR. A critical PT/INR value must be handled according to facility policy, documented accurately, and reported through the correct clinical pathway; the phlebotomist does not interpret or treat the result independently. The NHA CPT outline covers point-of-care testing, critical values for POC and CLIA-waived testing, hemostasis, coagulation, and reporting requirements. Reference topics: Special Collections; point-of-care testing; hemostasis and coagulation; critical value reporting.
NEW QUESTION # 23
At the completion of a routine venipuncture, a phlebotomist incurs a needlestick to their finger. Which of the following information should the phlebotomist include on the incident report for this situation?
Answer: A
Explanation:
The incident report should include the type of blood collection device used. For a needlestick or contaminated sharps injury, the device involved is central to exposure documentation because the facility must evaluate whether safer devices, training, handling, or disposal procedures failed. OSHA states that a sharps injury log must include, at minimum, the type and brand of device involved when known, the department or work area, and an explanation of how the incident occurred. The number and color of tubes collected may matter for specimen documentation but does not explain the exposure mechanism. The employee's primary care provider information is not the key occupational exposure detail. Proof of biohazard container fill-line adherence may be relevant only if the injury involved sharps disposal, but the broader required incident-report item is the collection device involved. The phlebotomist should immediately wash the area, report the injury, follow exposure-control policy, document the event, and obtain occupational health evaluation. Reference topics: Safety and Compliance; needlestick injury; exposure control; OSHA sharps injury log; incident reporting.
