Pressors and Amio

Our policy is to give these meds via a CVC as soon as possible. We have a doctor who insists it's not neccessary and is asking for evidence. It's going to take something big to convince him and he's really pushing our nurse. On or two articles in a nursing journal isn't going to be enough. So I'm asking for help to give him an avelache of literature and put the issue to rest ASAP. Thanks for your help!
