Product Description
Designed to provide an easy-to-read introduction to the practices and procedures of phlebotomy, this textbook focuses on the basics of phlebotomy and key techniques for blood collection. Its strengths include thorough and concise content, clear procedures, and excellent review questions. The new edition features an expanded glossary, equipment chapter, and certification exam. New photographs, line drawings, and a new overall design enhance the material's visual presentation, and updates ensure all equipment and safety information conforms to current standards. * An insert of color illustrations in the front of the book shows evacuated tube characteristics, providing a quick reference for determining the appropriate type of tube for blood collection of common tests. * Competency score sheet checklists enable readers to evaluate their mastery of newly-acquired skills related to the most critical and important steps in phlebotomy procedures. * Fill-in-the-blank review questions at the end of each chapter act as a self-assessment tool for measuring learning outcomes.

Yeah, the amazon is just the best to do business with when it comes to book, AMAZON is just the best.
My book is just like new, I did not even expect it to be that new since I`m purchasing a used book, but it`s so wonderful.
Nice doing business with you!

The chapters looked promising but the content fell short. The author attempted to expand the variables of knowledge often offered up to the phlebotomist by adding chapters that included Complications of Phlebotomy, Phlebotomy Department Management and Total Quality in Phlebotomy Service. Unfortunately the research for even the basic chapters fell short and relied on antiquated methodologies, technologies, standards and accepted practices. The bibliography offered at the end of each chapter reflected the use of appropriate agencies and literature, but from standards or information accepted five or ten years ago. With the ever-changing winds of healthcare even last years information can be too old. I would not recommend this to students who are attempting to take their national certification. The information given does not necessarily reflect the answers you will need to give on the national test(s). Some of the information offered in this book was interesting and well founded but if you don't already know the answers you're left wondering which parts you can trust for their accuracy.
