Blood sample hemolysis remains a persistent challenge in clinical laboratories, where the inadvertent rupture of erythrocytes can lead to the release of intracellular components that interfere ...

The second blood specimen was kept at 37°C because of the possibility of a cold agglutinin, but this specimen likewise revealed clotting and hemolysis, as reported by the laboratory.

Hemolyzed blood specimens commonly reflect in vitro hemolysis from issues pertaining to collection of the blood (e.g., small-bore needles) or handling of the blood (e.g., shaking the tube vigorously).

Hemolyzed specimens are five times more frequent than the second most common cause of specimen rejection. This demonstrates the severity of the problem that hemolysis brings to the medical community.

The purpose of this study was to assess the processes and outcomes of using the MC to sample blood for laboratory testing. We aimed to evaluate the MC in an acute care setting for hemolysis rates ...
