Communicating any conditions such as coagulation problems or ongoing therapies (anticoagulants/antiaggregants) to staff in a timely manner will help us prevent discomfort and ensure maximum safety during the procedure.

How to prepare for withdrawal

The blood draw is not painful, although it may create discomfort for some people: at Fanfani Health Facilities it will always be possible to give feedback on the physical effects of the service as well.

A tourniquet is used to draw blood, usually drawn from the inside of the arm, for the purpose of slowing blood flow and allowing the vein to swell; any allergies to the materials being used to perform the service must be reported in advance.

The sampler will perform the service with specific equipment also reported inside the sampling box; we ask you to inform us of any discrepancies.
We offer free of charge containers and media for the collection of specific biological samples (urine, feces, fluids, tissues,...) that must be collected in advance from our Health Facilities.

The scientific community agrees that the patient should have been fasting for at least 8-10 hours prior to the blood draw; in the time window prior to the blood draw, the patient may take only small amounts of water, excluding beverages that will alter the overall accuracy of the outcome. It is also requested to always report any medications, diets or personal psychophysical conditions; it will be the health care personnel who will assess possible relationships with the requested service.
