Case Study No. 2
You are performing the last draw of your shift. It’s been a long
day and you are looking forward to meeting your friends for pizza
right after work. The patient is prepped, the tourniquet is on, and
you reached for the red-topped tube which is the last one on your
tray. As you are about to insert the multi-sample needle into the
tube, you noticed the expiration date – it just expired.
Should you go ahead and perform the draw anyway since the
tube contains no additives that might go bad over time and the
vacuum is almost certainly still good? Or should you stop the draw
and ask the patient to wait while you get another tube? (Must
explain in 20-30 sentences)
