To minimize blood loss during sampling, Edwards Lifesciences' VAMP closed blood sampling systems incorporate an in-line reservoir that allows clinicians to reinfuse rather than discard the clearing volume. Needle-less VAMP systems are designed to reduce infection, needle sticks, and blood waste associated with conventional blood sampling methods. 1-4
Safe, simple and reliable closed blood sampling for effective patient blood management.
- The VAMP adult system is designed to reduce infection and blood waste associated with traditional blood sampling
- 5 cc reservoir designed for safe and convenient blood sampling in environments where close proximity to the patient is desired
- For use with disposable pressure transducers and for connection to central line catheters and arterial catheters
- Versatile design can be pole mounted on a backplate or used as an arm mount
- Z-site self-sealing sample port reduces blood buildup for collection of undiluted samples and improves infection control compared to traditional sampling methods

Sampling flexibility between surgery and intensive care
- Large 12 cc reservoir provides optimized clearing volume
- Choice of one or two Z-site sample sites for flexibility in perioperative settings
- Convenient one-handed operation simplifies sampling and clearing volume reinfusion
- Available individually or integrated into your disposable pressure transducer kit

Safety and accuracy for your smallest patients
- Designed to meet the volume-critical requirements of pediatric patients
- Smaller 3 cc reservoir optimizes clearing volumes, providing undiluted, accurate blood samples
- Graduated “cc” markings aid in selecting appropriate clearing volume for each patient
- Special contamination hood helps reduce infection risk
- Variety of tubing lengths to accommodate patient size requirements
