You could not be more wrong. The mistake was made multiple times by the same staff. It's due to fatigued night shift workers reading the meds wrong. They gave his kids several doses of 4000 instead of 40. In Quads case the nurse on duty was actually afraid to call the Administrator and wake them up at home.
Quaid's children were injured because of nearly identical medication packaging. Currently all IV tubing is clear and identical. It's estimated that at least 10 people die in the US a day because of medication errors linked to medication being administered via the IV route. Colored IV tubing with matching labels will stop these errors from happening. ColorSafe IV Lines is currently making this new technology.
