- The failure was not one person's lapse but a chain: a pharmacy technician stored the higher-dose heparin in the wrong place, and a nurse who administered the drug failed to verify the amount
This sourceState health regulators fined the hospital $25,000 for the overdoses; the error occurred because 'a pharmacy technician stored the higher heparin doses in the wrong place and a nurse who administered the drug to the babies failed to verify the amount'; 'All three children recovered, but two needed a drug that reverses the effects of Heparin'; the Quaids sued Baxter, accusing it of negligence in packaging different doses 'in similar vials with blue backgrounds'.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
