What is the white stuff in my blood tube?

[stephenfnielsen]

Have you ever drawn labs from a line and had some buoyant white goop in the tube? I was thinking it might be propofol, but on this particular pt I had been drawing labs on her for a number of days in a row and she hasn't been on propofol for a long time... What is it???

I don't even see why this is even an argument! Empirically the south is much fatter and unhealthy than any other region in the US (perhaps the devolved world?)
