STAT Specimen Transfer Bags - 3-Wall Design for Medical Laboratory Operations
These 6x6 STAT specimen transfer bags feature three-wall construction that keeps accompanying paperwork completely separate from biological specimens during transport. The bold "STAT" print ensures immediate identification for priority specimens requiring urgent processing. Reclosable seal-top design allows repeated access while maintaining secure containment throughout the chain of custody.

Medical & Laboratory Applications
Hospital laboratories rely on these specimen bags for efficient specimen transfer from collection points to processing areas. The three-wall design creates a dedicated outer pouch for requisition forms, patient labels, and chain-of-custody documentation—keeping paperwork dry and readable while isolating it from the specimen. Emergency departments, outpatient clinics, and phlebotomy stations use the STAT designation to flag priority samples requiring immediate attention. Reference laboratories receiving samples from multiple facilities benefit from the standardized format and clear urgency marking.

Common Questions
Q: What paperwork fits in the outer document pouch?
A: The outer wall accommodates standard laboratory requisition forms, patient identification labels, and chain-of-custody documents. Fold larger forms to fit the 6x6 dimensions, or use for smaller specimen labels and routing slips.
Q: Is the STAT designation visible when the bag is in a transport rack?
A: Yes, the STAT print is prominently displayed to ensure priority specimens are easily identified during sorting and processing, even when bags are standing upright in collection racks or coolers.
Q: Can these bags be used for biohazard specimens?
A: These bags are designed for general specimen transfer. For specimens requiring biohazard labeling, consider our biohazard-printed specimen bags or add appropriate secondary containment per your facility's protocols.
