Is it necessary to follow an order of draws when using micro-containers?

What is a micro-container?
No
Yes

Explanation

Answer: C - Some micro-containers contain anticoagulant additives. When using micro-containers, drawing samples in the following order will prevent additive cross-contamination: hematology, chemistry studies, and blood bank. Micro-containers (also known as capillary tubes) are the preferred method of specimen collection when only a small amount of blood is needed.
