One of the Star Trek (The Next Generation) episodes has a scene in which all the operating room (OR) staff are wearing red uniforms. I thought this was odd since it would be hard to see blood stains. It might be handy to see blood stains on clothing worn in the OR to warn staff that may not otherwise see a spurting blood vessel. I could be wrong…
I saw someone in a red nurse’s uniform studying in the cafe today. Perhaps the trend toward red OR uniforms has already begun.
