Cuáles son los riesgos:

Las venas y las arterias varían de tamaño de un paciente a otro y de un lado del cuerpo a otro, razón por la cual obtener una muestra de sangre de algunas personas puede resultar más difícil que de otras.

Otros riesgos asociados con la extracciĂłn de sangre son leves, pero pueden ser:

  • Sangrado excesivo
  • Desmayo o sensaciĂłn de mareo
  • Hematoma (acumulaciĂłn de sangre debajo de la piel)
  • InfecciĂłn (un riesgo leve cada vez que se presenta ruptura de la piel)
