Good morning,
What heparinized syringes do your RTs use if running gases on the epoc? 

Thanks,
Cindy

Our nurses use the EPOCs and they use Portex Line Draw Arterial Blood Sample Syringe from Smiths Medical - Ref#4042-2  (3 ml).

If RT is doing an arterial puncture, what syringe do they use?

Our respiratory therapist use the Pro-Vent Arterial Blood Sampling Kit.  Ref#4599P-1
