Abstract

Report on many cases of murder (the indictment included 41 cases) in the Clinical Centre of Lainz in Vienna. Two of the accused nurses were sentenced to life imprisonment, the other two to 15 and 12 years respectively. The operating modes are presented: intravenous administration of flunitrazepam, so called "oral hygiene", which proved to be forced aspiration of water, and injection of insulin. Possibilities of preventive measures against murder in hospital are discussed.
