A phlebotomist not wearing gloves can become contaminated from an infectious patient and be the mode of transmission of the infection to his or herself or to another patient.
Phlebotomy is the procedure of inserting a cannula into a vein, often in the arm, in order to extract blood. Venipuncture, the term for the process, is also used to describe intravenous treatment. Phlebotomists are those who do phlebotomies, while most doctors, nurses, and other technologists can also conduct phlebotomies. Phlebectomy, on the other hand, entails the removal of a vein.
Phlebotomies used to treat certain blood problems are referred to as therapeutic phlebotomies.
In therapeutic phlebotomy, an adult will typically have 1 unit (450–500 ml) of whole blood taken from them weekly to sometimes every few months, depending on the necessity.
