Preview 2 out of 5 pages

This AMCA Exam 2026/2027 study resource contains 36 exam questions with correct answers covering essential concepts in phlebotomy, hematology, venipuncture, clinical laboratory testing, infection control, and patient care. The five-page document provides concise question-and-answer revision material on coagulation, sanitization, disinfection, sterilization, complete blood count (CBC), blood types, petechiae, hemoconcentration, potassium levels, patient identification, and the effects of warming a venipuncture site. The document gives particular attention to blood collection and hematology concepts. Students review cardiac output, hematocrit ranges, heparin and EDTA tubes, order of collection, hemoconcentration caused by prolonged tourniquet application, venous stasis, lymphostasis, basal-state specimens, PT testing, and the anticoagulant action of heparin. It also includes questions concerning blood typing, formed blood elements, laboratory specimens, and clinical laboratory terminology. Another key area is phlebotomy and specimen collection. The material addresses tourniquet application, capillary puncture, warming collection sites, blood collection tubes, specimen requirements, and quality-assurance indicators. Students also encounter clinical concepts such as STAT orders, critical or panic values, urine pregnancy testing and hCG, ABG testing, parenteral medication administration, and intramuscular injection sites. The exam further covers infection prevention and safety, including universal precautions, CDC guidance, airborne precautions for pulmonary tuberculosis, immunity, and transmission of infectious microorganisms. These topics make the resource useful for students who need focused revision of both laboratory procedures and patient-safety principles before an AMCA-related assessment. Relevant students: This document is particularly relevant for AMCA certification candidates, phlebotomy technician students, clinical medical assistant students, medical assistant trainees, allied health students, laboratory assistant students, and learners reviewing hematology, specimen collection, infection control, and venipuncture procedures. Accuracy note: Some answers in the uploaded material appear inconsistent with standard clinical terminology; this description reflects the document as provided rather than silently correcting its answer key. The document identifies itself internally as AMCA Exam 2026/2027, despite the uploaded filename containing “2022.” No specific course code or university is identified.
