    Abstract: A blood draw device for performing arterial blood collection includes a catheter tube, a housing configured to movably receive the catheter tube, and an advancement member movably coupled to the housing to move the catheter tube between first and second positions, with a distal end of the catheter tube disposed beyond a distal end of the housing and past a distal tip of the indwelling arterial catheter when in the second position. A secondary catheter is coupled to the advancement member and extends out proximally therefrom, with a collection device coupled to the secondary catheter so as to be in fluid communication with the catheter tube. The blood draw device is configured such that a fluid path formed by the catheter tube and secondary catheter has a controlled geometric factor, defined as a ratio of a length of the fluid path to an inner diameter of the fluid path.
