Competency on phlebotomy of these participants (the so-called “lecture” group) was
assessed with the universal specimen acquisition questionnaire. The concept on learning was based on what they had previously learned via lecture class. As demonstrated in the Table 1, various parameters related to the performance of phlebotomy were assessed. It was found that the overall competency score of this group was only 55.58%. One must understand that quality test result will be very beneficially; only if specimen is collected from the right patient. Since the rule of thumb is “sampling the right patient”. Therefore the correct patient identification must be the number one concerns of specimen acquisition (Lippi G, Blanckaert N, Bonini P, et al., 2009). We found that they used technique of active two identified ID process. The less parameter was also important.Competency on phlebotomy of the “evidence-based” group was also shown (Table 2), the same questionnaire was used to assess their competency in both pre-test and post-test.
