ABSTRACT:
A pneumatic apparatus is employed to automatically load blood extracting devices. The apparatus includes a cylinder and a piston slidably receivable therein. The piston is connected to a casing or housing which supports a blood extracting device. The cylinder may be partially evacuated by forcing it into the housing. Once evacuated the cylinder is maintained in the biased position by a locking lever. The cylinder may be connected either to a blood receiving vessel or to a piston receivable within the blood receiving vessel through which the blood may be extracted. In order to extract blood the extracting device is first positioned in the vein of a patient in the conventional manner. The locking lever is then released and the partial vacuum within the cylinder causes the plunger within the blood receiving vessel to draw blood inwardly. A check valve and parallel channel arrangement in the plug at one end of the cylinder serves to slow and control the rate at which the blood is extracted. An abutment means is attached to the piston rod and serves as a final stop thereon. This device is especially convenient in that it can be manipulated with one hand while the other hand is free to perform other necessary functions.
