The document compares and contrasts the syringe method and evacuated tube system (ETS) methods for venipuncture. It lists 5 differences and 5 similarities between the two methods. For the syringe method, differences include controlling blood flow speed, seeing blood in the hub, and consisting of plunger, barrel and needle hub. For ETS, differences are using a multi-sample needle, holder and vacutainer tubes, and collecting blood directly into tubes. Similarities include both methods obtaining blood and being used for laboratory testing, providing a closed system, being quick, and obtaining multiple samples from one venipuncture.
