Cardioplegic Storage

My institution is starting an open heart program and I am working on the safe storage and dispensing of the cardioplegics and reperfusate. We will have one OR room and a Pyxis specifically for this room. How do others store their cardioplegics inside and outside of the pharmacy? For the Pyxis thinking of devoted tower door(s) where only these will be stored with labeling on the door. Thanks!
