VASCULAR ACCESS DEVICE WITH BLOOD CONTAINMENT CAPABILITY ABSTRACT A blood containment arterial access device (10) is provided which includes a thin-walled tube (12) having a lumen (16) which extends from the distal end of the tube (12) to the proximal end of the tube (12). The device (10) includes a transparent viewing cylinder (14) having a proximal end and a distal end. The distal end of the viewing cylinder (14) forms a pressure tight seal with -the tube (12) proximal end and further includes a lumen (18) in fluid communication with lumen (16) of tube (12). The viewing cylinder (14) forms an enclosed volume in order to contain blood that enters into the opening of the distal end of the tube (12). A guide wire access (22, 24) is located at the proximal end of the viewing cylinder (14). The guide wire access (22, 24) allows passage of a guide wire (70) through the viewing cylinder (14) and into the thin- walled tube (12). The access (22, 24) provides a pressure tight seal to prevent release of blood prior to insertion of the guide wire (70) through the guide wire access mechanism (22, 24).
