| For maximum Bacteriostatic action to occur how long should alcohol be allowed to dry? | 30 to 60 seconds. Never wipe or blow on it to speed up dry time. This will recontaminate the site. |
| Performing venipuncture before alcohol has dried will? | *Cause a stinging sensation to Pt.
*May Hemolyze the specimen |
| How should the needle be facing for proper veinipuncture? | Bevel up, at an angle of 15 to 30 degrees, depending on depth of target vein. |
