Fetal transfusion medication use

Hello,

Has anyone developed order set or preprinted order for medication use in the context of fetal transfusion? For example,

-rocuronium administered to fetus in utero

-sugammadex as "rescue" for mother ? (when mother receives some of the dose intended for fetus)

Also interested to learn how the mother vs. fetal admin is clearly differentiated in the order.

If no order sets, would also be interested in the drugs/dosing used for fetal transfusion.

Thanks
