sodium bicarbonate safety eHR strategy

Hello,
Does your hospital employ any particular safety strategies in the eHR build of IV sodium bicarbonate to ensure the resulting solution is not too hypotonic? For example, does it block sterile water or D5 from being used as a base solution? Any insight would be appreciated. Thank you.
