43
Red top mode of action
Blood clots, and the serum is separated by centrifugation
44
Gold top mode of action
SST contains a gel at the bottom to separate blood from serum on centrifugation
45
Light green top mode of action
Anticoagulates with lithium heparin; plasma is separated with PST gel at the bottom of the tube
46
Purple tube mode of action
Forms calcium salts to remove calcium
47
Light blue top mode of action
Forms calcium salts to remove calcium
48
Red top uses
Chemistries, immunology, and serology
49
Gold top uses
Chemistries, immunology, and serology
50
Light green top uses
Chemistries
51
Purple top uses
Hematology(CBC) and Blood bank (crossmatch) -invert 8 times to prevent clotting and platelet clumping
52
Light blue top uses
Coagulation test( protime and prothrombin time)
53
Name the additive in the purple tube
EDTA
54
What happens to a specimen of blood when it is centrifuges?
It is separated from the serum
55
What does a HgbA1C analyze?
3 month average blood sugar
56
Which tube contains sodium citrate?
Light blue top
57
Why do we draw Therapeutic drug levels in a red top tube?
It doesn't have any SST or additives, other tubes like the gold tube might absorb meds and hormones
58
If you were drawing a rainbow which color would you leave out?
Yellow
59
Which test must be drawn from a sterile site?

60
What does PST stand for?
Plasma separating tube
61
Which tube would you draw for a CBC?
Purple top
62
What does CBC stand for?
Complete blood count
63
Which tube must be filled completely?
Light blue top for coag test
64
Which tube contains LI-HEP?
Light green top
65
What 5 items must appear on every tube of blood that is drawn?
Patients name, date, time drawn, DOB, your initials
66
Which tube is the SST?
Gold top
67
Explain the difference between serum and plasma
Serum is plasma without the clotting factors
68
Which tubes are commonly used for chemistry tests?
Light green and yellow
69
Which tube has pre-dilution in it?
Light blue for coag tests
70
List the correct order in which the tubes are drawn
Blue, red,yellow,green, purple
71
