Hi y'all

I have recently been to a website which I'm sure all you OR Nurses know of, www.or-live.com and noticed the patients that are being operated on have yellow skin. I'm confused. Please help.

Thanks

I may be wrong, but I believe you are seeing the skin prep, a disinfectant like Betadine.

I agree with Marie, it's probably Ioban.
