Hello! We are currently evaluating our processes for how potassium chloride is administered at our OP Infusion and Oncology centers and looking to compare our practices with other facilities.

For both types of settings:

Do you utilize only manufactured IVPB or do you allow compounding of custom concentrations?

Do you have policy regarding the maximum concentration that will be utilized for peripheral vs central line or port? Do you utilize the same minimum concentration regardless of type of IV access available?

If you compound custom concentrations of potassium chloride, do you allow other electrolytes to be mixed in that bag?

Do you allow potassium chloride to be administered as a secondary or is it restricted to primary infusion?
