A gas fitter pleaded guilty to negligence in a 2015 hospital error that gave a newborn nitrogen instead of oxygen, causing death.
A gas fitter, Christopher Laurie Turner, pleaded guilty to failing health and safety duties in the 2015 death of a newborn at Bankstown Hospital, where the infant received nitrogen instead of oxygen due to mislabeled medical gas pipelines from the 1990s.
Errors during a 2015 upgrade, including falsified test sign-offs, led to the fatal mix-up.
Turner was fined $100,000 in 2021.
The company BOC Limited was cleared after a judge found Turner and a hospital employee falsely certified tests that were never done.
The incident prompted New South Wales to require specialized licenses for medical gas system installations.
