Zusammenfassung:A vacuum tube receiver can include a housing that has a proximal end and a distal end. The housing can include a hollow interior and a proximal opening for receiving a vacuum tube into the hollow interior. The distal end of the housing can form an adapter for coupling the vacuum tube receiver to an intravenous system. The vacuum tube receiver may also include one or more spikes that extend proximally into the hollow interior to form a blood flow path. The vacuum tube receiver can include a number of features to control the pressure and/or flowrate of blood into a vacuum tube.
