    ERROS PRÉ-ANALÍTICOS ASSOCIADOS À COLETA SANGUÍNEA
    (2024-12-03) ÉLLEN CLEMENTE DOS REIS
    Diagnostic medicine aims to ensure efficient and safe care for patients. Therefore, it is essential that clinical laboratories provide fast and reliable results, as these are essential in decision-making and disease prognosis. The pre-analytical phase covers all the steps that precede the exam. It is known that this phase is responsible for approximately 68% of laboratory errors. The objective, then, was to present the main errors in blood collection, analyze the factors contributing to the occurrence of these errors, proposing strategies to minimize pre-analytical errors. The methodology used was through a bibliographic survey using scientific articles published from 2003 onwards, available on virtual platforms, such as SciELO, PubMed and Google Scholar. The research showed that the most frequent pre-analytical errors associated with blood collection include incorrect patient identification, inadequate tube order, inadequate sample handling and prolonged transportation time to the laboratory. Such failures compromise the quality of the results. And the standardization of processes contributes positively, generating more reliability in the information associated with laboratory test results and reducing complications. It is concluded that this phase is more susceptible to errors due to the majority of processes being manual. To reduce these errors, it is necessary to implement continuing education programs in clinical laboratories, in addition to continuously monitoring team practices. The adoption of standardized protocols and training of professionals are essential to guarantee the reliability of results and patient safety.
