Maximum Osmolarity For Peripheral Line in Peds Patinets

We are thinking about increasing the upper limit for osmolarity for peripheral line and standardizing in neonatal and older children population. As of right now our neonates (1200) and older kids (1000). We are trying to figure out if we can standardize all ages to 1200 upper limit.

Thank you
