https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/f/nonclinical-discussions/8803/blood-sample I am writing a case report and was wondering if there was a certain term for blood sample? I probably sound a bit daft asking!! But is it something like jugular venipuncture?? or is that the procedure involved . . . en-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/84620?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 07 Jun 2010 20:00:56 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:c50c7189-d222-480f-8ceb-4d83daac9a6cJeniflower<p>I believe venipuncture refers to actually the &#39;puncture&#39; of a vein either for sampling purposes, IVFT, drug therapy etc. Phlebotomy I think specifically refers to blood sampling...? I suppose using either would be acceptable!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/84517?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 07 Jun 2010 12:45:25 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:34504ca5-7031-4ed6-8898-dad46856dc34Pippa Louise<p>I&#39;ve just found it now from my human nursing dictionary - it&#39;s venipuncture! thanks for leading me there though with phlebotomy :) </p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/84516?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 07 Jun 2010 12:37:29 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:188794cf-afd8-4f5c-ba08-54acdb6e5ba2Sal the 1st<p>phlebotomy?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
