The Relationship Between Phlebotomists' Knowledge, Attitudes, and Behaviors Regarding Venous Blood Specimen Collection and Handling with Laboratory Specimen Quality at RSUD X
Background: Errors in blood specimen collection and handling can lead inaccurate, misinterpretation of laboratory test results. However, the urgent crossmatching, sometimes even omitting the incubation phase. This accelerated process may compromise the accuracy of results.
Purpose: To determine the relationship between phlebotomists' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding blood specimen collection and handling with the quality of venous blood specimens and evaluate the impact of incubation on crossmatch results at RSUDX.
Methods: Data analysis used the Chi-square test. A quasi-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test design was adopted for this study and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test was conducted to assess for statistically significant differences.
Resut: There was a relationship between phlebotomists' knowledge of blood specimen collection and handling and the quality of laboratory specimens (p-value 0.001). There was no relationship between phlebotomists' attitudes toward blood specimen collection and handling and the quality of laboratory specimens (p-value 0.682). There was no relationship between phlebotomists' behavior in blood specimen collection and handling and the quality of laboratory specimens (p-value 0.494). Both incubated and non-incubated crossmatch tests shows same result. Wilcoxon signed-rank test showed p-value0.05). Similarly, the non-incubated group p-value is 0.000 (p0.05).
Conclusion: is a significant relationship between phlebotomists' knowledge and the quality of laboratory specimens. There is no relationship between phlebotomists' attitudes and behaviors regarding blood specimen collection and the quality of laboratory specimens at RSUD X. There was no significant difference results between incubated and non-incubated sample
