When to Use BD Vacutainer® Citrate Tubes 1.8mL:

1. Coagulation Studies: These tubes are essential for coagulation studies, including prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) tests. They help evaluate the blood’s ability to clot and are crucial in diagnosing bleeding disorders or monitoring patients on anticoagulant therapy.

2. Platelet Function Tests: BD Vacutainer® Citrate Tubes are ideal for platelet function tests, which are important for assessing platelet aggregation and activation. These tests are vital for patients with suspected platelet function disorders or those undergoing antiplatelet therapy.

3. Routine Coagulation Monitoring: For patients with conditions requiring regular monitoring of their coagulation status, such as those on warfarin or other anticoagulants, these tubes provide reliable and consistent sample collection. They help ensure accurate results, facilitating effective patient management and treatment adjustments.
