Any institution use the pneumatic tube system to send their blood gas samples?
I have read some studies that show that it does affect certain results but I am also curious if anyone has ever done their own study?
Thanks!

While it was not an official study, when I was trying to do my correlations, my pO2s looked horrible. We stopped immediately using the tube system.
In the main lab, all the blood gases come through the tube station.
