Newborn Deaths in Indiana
What a sad story this is. They verify all the narcotics at Children's Mercy in KC. But, heparin seemed to be used pretty freely to keep IVs patent (hep-locked?). More evidence of the necessity of parental vigilance. Although, I am not sure it would make much difference in a freak accident like this. My thoughts are with the families of these newborns.
