Code Carts and Epinephrine Syringes in ICU

Hello All,
We are re-evaluating our code cart contents in ICU and wanted to ask those that work in hospitals with an open heart program the following:
1) How many beds is your ICU?
2) How many code carts do you have in the unit?
3) How many epinephrine syringes are supplied in each code cart?

Thanks for any information you can share!

Chris
