Parenteral Nutrition Smart Pump DERS

Good Morning All,

Currently our smart pump drug library entry for parenteral nutrition is built with an infusion rate soft max. We have a request to modify the entry to include a hard max. I'm curious if others have built their parenteral nutrition entries with a hard max and what that limit is. Does that hard max differ for central vs. peripheral administration?

Thanks in advance!
