Handle all biologic samples and medical “sharps” (lancets, needles, and transfer straws) according to the policies and procedures of your
facility. Obtain appropriate medical attention in the event of any exposure to biologic samples (for example, through a puncture injury) since
they may transmit viral hepatitis, HIV (AIDS), or other infectious diseases. BD does not recommend reshielding used needles, but the policies
and procedures of your facility may differ and must always be followed. Discard any medical “sharps” in biohazard containers approved
for their disposal.

Closed system reduces exposure of the healthcare worker to potentially
contaminated urine
Allows collection of a fresh urine sample from a Foley catheter sampling port
without using a needle
NCCLS Guidelines recommend testing urine within two hours of collection

Collection into an evacuated tube allows leak-proof transport
via a pneumatic tube system
A common source of needlestick injury is through urine sampling via Foley
Catheter.

”Ideally, the most effective way of removing the hazard of a
contaminated needle is to eliminate the needle completely by converting
to needleless systems.

the transfer of urine to one or
more tubes without
exposure to specimen
Transfer device eliminates the
need for pouring, therefore
avoiding messy spills
