Abstract
Conclusions. The PT and aPTT values determined after venipuncture and through the peripheral catheter were not statistically different (p>0.05) when compared by paired or unpaired analysis. Similarly, values of FVII:C measured after venipuncture were statistically equivalent to those after sampling through the peripheral catheter. All six patients preferred the catheter method of blood collection over venipuncture.
