[edit] Neutrality
I am tempted to put a neutrality banner on this article. It reads as a history of Baxter's accomplishments and nothing else. What about noteworthy negative items, i.e. in 1998 clinical trials of their their blood substitute HemAssit were stopped by the FDA when 20 people died. Baxter closed a $110 million plant in Switzerland and lost $500 million in research investment because of this.--Gregoryg72 05:20, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
That is probably appropriate, the article needs alot of work in general, I think all of the information on the page now came from their web page. --Theblog 17:22, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Bubble Oxygenator
The article lists this as a development of the 1970s. I was product manager for bubble oxygenators in 1969, and they were by no means a new product at that time. Lou Sander 15:58, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Baxter's dialysis filters as a possible cause of 31 deaths in Spain and Croatia
This piece of information should be added to the article. Here are some external links:
