ABSTRACT:
The hand held phlebotomy protection device of this invention is used for safe transfer of blood from a syringe container to a plurality of test tubes held in the device by gripping the resilient handle of the device. The device is usable for any body fluid being transferred to a test tube from a syringe. The device has a shield disk with a groove and a lip to receive and stop a misguided needle before it has an opportunity to reach the hand of a user holding the device. The resilient handle has a resilient handle wall that also protects the user from a needlestick. The handle is gripped to deform the cavity cross-section holding the test tubes so the needle can be safely withdrawn to complete a safe transfer of body fluid from the syringe to a test tube.
