Caption:
This image depicts a female patient, seated in a clinic, who was in the process of having some blood extracted from her left arm’s antecubital vein, during a phlebotomy procedure. The gloved hands of the female phlebotomist were securing the venipuncture site: right hand holding the needle tipped catheter; left hand being used to determine the location of the antecubital vein. See PHIL 12492, for a closer view of the left arm’s phlebotomy site.
