When a blood sample is hemolyzed, it means the red cells have ruptured to the extent that they impart a pink/red color to the blood plasma, which is normally pale yellow. By comparison, gross hemolysis describes a plasma sample as intensely red as cherry-flavored gelatin. The red color is due to hemoglobin.
By doing that we have reduced the incidence of IV blood draws in the ED from 38% of all ED draws to only 5% of all ED draws. The overall rate of redraws in ED in the same time period fell from 3.8% to 1.8%. 1  We have given up trying to change ED Nurse behavior. 2  Instead, now when we have a hemolyzed specimen we report out a result on all analytes that are not impacted by hemolysis.
