Summary: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. Un receptor de tubo al vacío puede incluir un alojamiento que tenga un extremo proximal y un extremo distal. El alojamiento puede incluir un interior hueco y una abertura proximal para recibir un tubo al vacío en el interior hueco. El extremo distal del alojamiento puede formar un adaptador para acoplar el receptor de tubo al vacío a un sistema intravenoso. El receptor de tubo al vacío también puede incluir una o más espigas que se extiendan proximalmente en el interior hueco para formar una vía de flujo sanguíneo. El receptor de tubo al vacío puede incluir una serie de rasgos distintivos para controlar la presión y/o el caudal de sangre en un tubo al vacío.
