   4. Apply a tourniquet 7-10 cm above the site of venipuncture. Ask the patient to clench his fist. DO NOT prescribe physical activity for the hand (clenching and unclenching the fist), because this can lead to changes in the concentration of some blood parameters. Choose a place for venipuncture, disinfect it, wait until the antiseptic is completely dry. Remove the protective cap from the second half of the needle.

   9. Remove the tube from the holder. The rubber membrane of the needle will block the flow of blood. When using reagent tubes, carefully flip the tube several times to mix completely. If necessary, take blood in test tubes for other studies. After completing the procedure, remove the needle from the vein, apply a pressure dressing or bactericidal patch to the wound.
