My facility recently had an ER nurse use an adapter to attach a 3ml/300 units Humulin R vial to a 100 ml NS bag for a 1:1 insulin drip. Curious as to if second nurse verifications are required on all insulin orders? And also if any facilities predraw 1ml syringes of Humulin R to keep in Pyxis for drips?
