While January was especially designated as Blood Donor Month, the need for blood and its derivatives never goes away. Neither does the need to take blood samples. Used in medical labs, outpatient clinics, long-term care facilities, blood banks, health care providers’ offices, and hospitals around the world, blood drawing chairs provide a comfortable, safe place for patients to sit while a clinician takes a blood sample or donation. At least one arm rest either lifts or swings out of the way for easy patient seating while providing a surface to arrange needed supplies such as needles, tubes, and alcohol wipes. 

The differences in the chairs involve the style of seat, materials used in frame construction, and adaptations for patients or donors with different needs, as well as the ability to adjust the chair’s height manually or with electric powered hydraulics for the comfort of the clinician. Here are three different models carried by Rehabmart.    

Designed with economy in mind, the Clinton Value Series Blood Draw Chair features a frame constructed of inch-square, gray powder coated steel with a one-piece molded plastic seat that cleans easily with the wipe of a soft cloth and mild spray cleaner. The laminated arms with tee-molded edges are height adjustable and one can swing a full 360 degrees. This innovative chair can support up to 300 pounds. Options include extra seat height, drawers, and optional arm padding in a choice of colors. 

With a weight capacity of 700 pounds and an extra wide seat, the Clinton Bariatric Series Blood Drawing Chair has a bench-style seat with extra center reinforcement. This chair not only gives larger people a safe and comfortable to sit, but it can also be used in situations where a parent needs to hold a child while a sample is being taken. Two locking flip-up arms allow the patient to sit or to stand up without struggling around stationary arm rests. The seat and armrests sport a generous two inches of padding upholstered in antimicrobial vinyl that comes in a variety of colors. This blood drawing chair is available in a choice of either 48 or 58 inch widths.    

Able to raise and lower patients weighing up to 300 pounds with the tap of a toe, the Winco Power Designer Blood Draw Chair also has flip-up armrests for easy seating and positioning. The seat is pleasantly padded and upholstered in a choice of standard or upgraded vinyl or SilverTex in a wide variety of colors. Upholstery materials meet all California standards for flammability.  Further choices for customizing include a choice of utility trays and arm options. 

Blood drawing chairs make the process of blood donations and lab work a lot more comfortable and safe for donors and patients. These chairs help in monitoring patients with conditions such as diabetes, or ensuring that levels of medications stay in the therapeutic window, or for diagnostic procedures that require blood work such as CBCs. They also make the process a lot more comfortable for phlebotomists, nurses, and other clinicians who perform blood draws as well.
