Ann Marie, Have you contacted the group at Norfolk Medical? In addition to making a great sub q infusion device, they have sample policies and procedures also. The maximum rate is dependent on the therapy. For clysis, for example, it is dependent on gravity and what the tissue can tolerate, up to 1500 cc/24 hrs per site or 60 cc/hr/site.
