Heparin is a polyanion, so: Calculate the amount instilled, the volume of fresh blood used to "flush" this amount to the blood collecting device, the resulting concentration in the blood/plasma sample. Use common sense to asses these numbers.

If in doubt (due to physico-chemical properties of analyte), do some in vitro studies with fresh blood/heparin.

When puzzled, it never hurts to read the primary documents 
a rather simple and self-evident principle that has, nonetheless,
completely disappeared from large sectors
of the American experience.    Stephen Jay Gould
