Dr. Death?

From this column:
…[A]ccording to a spokesman for the Texas Department of Corrections, which has carried out many executions by lethal injection, the technician (it’s never a doctor) is in fact supposed to swab the prisoner’s arm first.
emphasis added

Is this because of the Hippocratic oath? First, do no harm… etc.?
