Heparin sodium content in blood vessels

 

As a naturally occurring substance, heparin can be made into heparin sodium or heparin lithium powder through chemical technology, and then added to vacuum blood collection vessels through preparation for use in different detection projects. The requirements for different clinical testing items vary, so the amount of addition is also somewhat different. Below, we will focus on introducing it, so that during the operation process, we can also avoid the result error caused by insufficient addition.

 

1、 The role of heparin sodium

Heparin sodium is added to a vacuum tube and can be used as an in vitro anticoagulant. When collected blood comes into contact with heparin sodium in a test tube, it can quickly interfere with the coagulation process and prevent blood coagulation in a short time. This not only saves time for medical personnel, but also effectively improves the detection efficiency. Patients also do not need to wait for results for a long time.

 

2、 Heparin sodium content

Heparin is extracted from the mucous membrane of the small intestine of pigs and used as heparin sodium. According to industry standards, its added content is 12IU-30IU units/milliliter. Although it is a standard reference range given in the industry, in practical applications, it is generally adjusted and added according to the tube specifications, typically adding 15-25 IU of heparin sodium per milliliter of blood.

 

In addition, when using heparin tubes, because they can participate in cell metabolism, the amount of heparin used can interfere with the test results. Therefore, the amount of heparin sodium used should fully ensure that the sample is fully anticoagulated, thereby ensuring the effectiveness of the test value.

 

3、 Use of heparin sodium tube

1. As an additive in blood collection, crude heparin sodium cannot be used, but refined refined heparin sodium must be used to ensure a pure appearance.

2. When using a heparin tube, slowly invert the blood sample as soon as possible and mix it evenly for about 8 times, especially when the ambient temperature is too high. If the mixing is not in place, half of the blood sample will coagulate and half of the blood sample will not coagulate, resulting in inaccurate test results.
