Blood everywhere...

3-3-7 says the blood needs to be "appropriately cleaned".
If a player returns with a pink-reddish smudge and the trainer says its been disinfected/appropriately cleaned... I think we simply play on.

A player who is bleeding, has an open wound, has any amount of
blood on his/her uniform, or has blood on his/her person, shall be directed to
leave the game until the bleeding is stopped, the wound is covered, the uniform
and/or body is appropriately cleaned, and/or the uniform is changed before
returning to competition, unless a time-out is requested by, and granted to,
his/her team and the situation can be corrected by the end of the time-out.

Yup: uniform need only be "appropriately cleaned".
Uniform doesn't have to be changed.
Q. What does "appropriately cleaned" mean?
If a trainer or doctor says the uniform is disinfected - we play on.

If you mean more like a stain than the actual body fluid, I agree. Wash, spray with something (bleach would probably be OK -- microbiologists chime in), and you're good to go.

Hydrogen peroxide should be able to clean up any fresh blood to where you cannot tell there wasnt any blood on the uniform. I use it all the time for fresh blood and its really effective.

Sounds like an episode of Criminal Minds.
