I have one more question for you, and others, as well: What does central blood mean in this sentence:

"Central blood" is that which is taken from the vena cava, the vein which empties into the heart, as opposed to "peripheral blood" which is taken from a vien near the skin surface of a limb (usually the antecubital foss - inside the elbow)

The usual method of obtaining "central blood" is via a central venous catheter - picture here:
