Important: Be sure to fill your collection tube as much as possible. If the tube is not completely filled, we may not be able to perform all of the tests that were ordered. To review our policy on insufficient samples, please click HERE.
To help ensure proper blood flow and collect enough for all tests, follow these tips:
Hydrate Thoroughly: Drink at least 16 oz of water 1–2 hours prior to collecting your sample. Proper hydration is key to adequate blood flow.
Relax Your Body: Stress can constrict blood vessels. Take a few moments to sit calmly and breathe deeply before beginning.
Get Moving: Light physical activity, such as walking or gentle arm movements, can help stimulate circulation and improve flow.
