Which statement is true about the Blood set?

• A. It is an IV set with 0.100 Inch tubing for administration and blood
• B. It is used to measure blood pressure
• C. It is used to draw blood from a donor
• D. It is used to separate plasma from blood

Answer: (A)

A blood set is a specialized IV administration set designed specifically for delivering blood products to a patient. Its tubing is sized (0.100 inch) to provide controlled flow and compatibility with standard blood bags, and it typically includes an in-line filter to remove debris and help protect the patient during transfusion. This makes it the proper equipment for administering blood, rather than for measuring blood pressure, drawing blood from a donor, or separating plasma from blood.
