At prpmed, professional users will find sterile blood collection sets for venous blood collection in practices, laboratories and preparatory PRP workflows. The range includes butterfly and safety blood collection sets with or without a pre-attached tube holder, as well as versions with different tubing lengths and pack sizes. Compare the products according to the tube system used, the needle size and your established workflow.

Which blood collection set suits your workflow?

A blood collection set connects a winged needle to the tube holder or intended collection system by means of flexible tubing. The relevant factor is not one feature in isolation, but the coordinated combination of needle, tubing, holder and blood collection tube.

Typical components
Winged needle, flexible tubing, connector and, depending on the version, a pre-attached tube holder.
Available versions
Safety blood collection sets with or without holder, different tubing lengths and different pack sizes.
Typical uses
Venous blood collection in medical practices, clinics, laboratories and preparatory PRP workflows.
Key selection criterion
Documented compatibility with the holder and tube system in use.

What is the difference between butterfly and safety blood collection sets?

Butterfly or winged needle

A butterfly usually refers to a needle with plastic wings and flexible tubing. The wings support controlled handling and fixation by trained professionals.

Safety blood collection set

A safety blood collection set also includes a mechanism for securing or shielding the used needle after collection. This may reduce unintended contact, but it does not replace correct use and disposal.

Terminology: Vacutainer® is a BD brand. VACUETTE® refers to the blood collection system from Greiner Bio-One. In everyday language, “Vacutainer” is sometimes used generically for vacuum blood collection systems. Product selection must nevertheless be based on the specific system in use.

Blood collection set with or without holder?

A pre-attached holder can shorten preparation. Sets without a holder provide more flexibility when compatible holders are already standardised in the facility.

Blood collection set with or without holder?

PreparationThe tube holder is already part of the set.A suitable holder must be available separately.
FlexibilityThe system combination is largely predefined.The holder can be selected for the existing system.

Check before useCompatibility of the supplied holder with the tubes.Compatibility of connector, holder and tube system.

Similar-looking connectors or holders are not automatically compatible. The product description, intended purpose and manufacturer information for all components are decisive.

What do needle size and tubing length mean?

Technical specifications help distinguish blood collection sets. The suitable version must be selected by qualified professionals for the specific application and in line with the manufacturer’s instructions.

Blood collection sets for preparatory PRP workflows

In a PRP workflow, venous blood collection is the first step in the preparation process. The blood collection set is used to transfer the collected blood into the intended tube system.

The blood collection set, holder and PRP tubes must be suitable for use together. The specified fill volume, order of draw and tube manufacturer’s information must also be followed.

Blood collection is a preparatory process step. Subsequent processing must follow the instructions for use of the tubes, medical devices and equipment used.

Which hygiene and safety rules must be observed?

Blood collection sets are used in professional work with blood. Sterile single-use products should only be removed from intact packaging immediately before use.

  • Check the sterile barrier and packaging before use
  • Observe the expiry date and storage conditions
  • Check compatibility of all components before use
  • Activate the safety mechanism as instructed
  • Do not reuse or reprocess single-use products
  • Dispose of used needles in a puncture-resistant sharps container

Frequently asked questions about blood collection sets

What is included in a blood collection set?

A blood collection set typically consists of a winged needle, flexible tubing and a connector for the tube holder. Depending on the version, the holder may be pre-attached or added separately. Safety models also include a mechanism for securing the used needle.

What is the difference between a butterfly and a safety blood collection set?

A butterfly generally refers to the winged needle with flexible tubing. A safety blood collection set additionally includes a mechanism that can secure or shield the used needle after blood collection. The exact contents vary by product.

When is a pre-attached holder useful?

A pre-attached holder can be useful when a directly prepared system is preferred and the supplied holder matches the tube system in use. Versions without a holder provide more flexibility when suitable holders are already available.

What do gauge and tubing length mean?

Gauge describes the needle’s outside diameter. A higher gauge number means a smaller diameter. Tubing length determines the distance between the puncture site and tube holder. Both must be selected for the intended workflow and according to the manufacturer’s information.

What compatibility must be considered with PRP tubes?

The blood collection set must be compatible with the holder and intended PRP tube. Components that look similar are not automatically approved for use together. The product description, intended purpose and manufacturer information are decisive.
