As the national IV fluid supply stabilizes, we are updating EPIC defaults effective today, 04/22/2025. The default duration for IV fluid orders will now be 3 days instead of 1, with a maximum duration of 5 days, up from 2.
Orders exceeding 5 days will prompt a validation warning. Beacon/Oncology treatment plan orders will remain unaffected.
Thank you for your adaptability and vigilance during the shortage.
