Phlebotomy refers to a collection of venous blood. This operation can be practiced on all the superficial veins of the body, on those of the foot, the leg, the neck, the whole upper limb. It must be done in an area where there is a protruding vein and the least sensitive to limit pain to the patient. It should not be done in an altered, injured or infected area (like bruise)

The blood is collected on tubes with or without anticoagulant according to the analyzes that one wants to practice.

The reason for choosing the sampling site is for the most part practical, the veins are easily identifiable, and easily accessible for paramedical personnel. Their collection is less dangerous than that of arteries, which are generally thinner and close to the peripheral nerves.
