Safe, simple and reliable closed blood sampling for effective patient blood management.

Needle-less VAMP systems are designed to reduce infection, needle sticks, and blood waste associated with conventional blood sampling methods. 1-4
Large 12 cc reservoir provides optimized clearing volume
Choice of one or two Z-site sample sites for flexibility in perioperative settings
