Heparin infusions in NICU
Has any institution been successful in getting their peds NICU to use large volume Heparin infusion premix bags? We use a standard concentration of 50 units per mL, and 100 units per mL but draw up from premixes into 50mL IV syringes for our NICU. Are you on IV pump interoperability and did that sway your decision to make the change? Thanks!
