Pediatric IV fluids

Our practice has been to use 500ml bags for pediatric patients in the past which I presume it goes back to the days prior to infusion pumps, and that it was to decrease the risk if a dial-a-flow was left wide open somehow. Just wanted to see what others are doing. Does anyone have a policy on this they can share. Also, what is the age cutoff if you are doing this practice?
