minus-square@Earthwormjim91link5•11 months agoSince it’s IV medication given before/during an endoscopy, I’d guess it’s the syringe used to flush the IV line. Not the same one 450 times, but an employee using the same one for multiple patients in a day, then tossing it instead of using a new one for each.
450 times?!
