Taking blood samples by means of conventional intravascular devices requires throwing away an initial volume of mixed blood and serum which comprises between 24-26% of the volume of blood extracted from the patient admitted into an intensive care ward. At present time there exists a device with a reservoir, VAMP, which permits one to obtain blood samples without having to waste this initial volume. The working hypothesis poses that the use of the VAMP device decreases the risk of transfusion. This study has a random prospective design. This study subjects are 58 patients admitted in the intensive care ward at the Parc Taulí Corporation distributed in a control group which made use of a conventional device and a VAMP group which made use of the device having a reservoir. The study used a data recordsheet. Statistical calculations were carried out on the SPSS program.
