Vacutainer® Holder/Vacutainer sleeve

"Vacutainer® Holder
The Vacutainer® holder is a plastic sleeve into which the phlebotomist screws the double pointed Vacutainer® needle. Holders are available in different colors and in two sizes, one for adults and one for pediatric use. Some Vacutainer® holders are single use with emphasis on safety. Here the needle is covered after use and the whole apparatus is disposed of. Most holders are used repeatedly and therefore must be disinfected in between uses."

vacutainer jacket

Vacutainer is a brand name so remains as it is. I've found a number of references to the "jackets" worn by animals to hold the vacutainers - the link below also has a nice picture of a sheep wearing such a jacket.

Alessandra's suggestion may be correct - with any luck the rest of your document will give you enough context to tell which of these possibilities is right.
