Refrigerated IV Fluids-MH Cart

Hello,

What type of expiration date do you assign to 0.9% NS 1000 mL stored in the refrigerator (2-8 C) for Malignant Hyperthermia emergency use? I know it varies based on brand/type (B.Braun, Baxter, Excel), extended stability data shows it could be good beyond 30 days. Curious to know what your facility is doing.

Thank You,

Samir Jani
