About this document

Changes to Blood Specimen Collection Laws by Medhat Sabri is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document discusses proposed changes to UK legislation to allow the use of evacuated tube containers for taking blood specimens from persons accused of drink or drug driving. Currently, the law requires using syringes to take blood and divide it between two vials. Evacuated tubes would provide safety, ease of use, familiarity and cost benefits compared to syringes but would contravene current laws. The proposed changes would continue to permit existing methods and evacuated tubes to provide flexibility.
