    Hmm I have no idea. Our nutritionists do the TPN orders typically

    Our IT built ours with input from pharmacy and our nutritionist. We pretty much just check the label to the order and sign off. The orders have areas for them to check glucose concentration, standards for amino acids, etc and if something needs tailored they call pharmacy to input what they need.

    The MDs do it. Two nurses compare the label to the order form.
