Which term includes gloves, requisition form, alcohol wipes, lancet, gauze, microtainer collection tubes, capillary tubes, neonatal screen, sharps container?

• A. capillary puncture process
• B. capillary puncture equipment
• C. capillary puncture definition
• D. SVN mask

Answer: (B)

The items listed are all the supplies and tools used to perform a capillary blood collection. Gloves, alcohol wipes, and a sharps container cover safety and disposal; a lancet is the puncturing device; gauze stops bleeding; microtainer collection tubes and capillary tubes hold the blood; the neonatal screen is a common test collected via capillary puncture; and even the requisition form fits into the workflow of collecting and submitting the specimen. Collectively, these are the equipment you need to carry out the capillary puncture procedure, so capillary puncture equipment is the best choice. The other options describe the steps of the procedure, a definition of the term, or an unrelated item, and don’t group the supplies in the same way.
