Which of the following is not a special consideration when working with newborns?

Provide a protective environment.
Accurately monitor the total volume of withdrawn blood.
Ensure warmth.
Use protective restraints where necessary.

Explanation

Answer: D - An infant does not require protective restraints to safely draw a blood specimen. A phlebotomist or patient care technician should be aware of the special considerations of this population, especially monitoring the total amount of withdrawn blood, as an infant's total blood volume is much less than an older child or adult.
