The vacuum blood collection tube prevents needle stick damage by preventing needles from coming in human contact and thus, contamination. The vacuum blood collection tube contains a double pointed needle, attached to a plastic tubular adapter. Double pointed needles are available in many gauge sizes. The length of the needle ranges from 1 to 11/2 inches. Vacuum blood collection tubes may contain additional constituents which are used to preserve blood for treatment in a medical laboratory. These additives are in the form of films applied using an ultrasonic nozzle. The additives contained in the vacuum blood collection tube are anticoagulants, such as EDTA, sodium citrate, heparin or gel. A vacuum blood collection tube is mostly used by clinics and laboratories for storing blood for future testing.
