The present disclosure provides a method for creating a label for labeling an intravenous infusion line. Further, the method may include receiving an information associated with one or more intravenous infusion lines from input devices, analyzing the information, determining label content of labels associated with the intravenous infusion lines, determining label content formats of the label content, generating a label information for the labels based on the label content and the label content formats, and printing the label information on label sheets using a printing device based on the label information. Further, the printing device comprises a thermal printer configured for selectively inducing a chromatic transition in a thermochromic composition associated with the label sheets. Further, the printing of the label information on the label sheets is further based on the selective induction. Further, the printing of the label information creates the labels for the intravenous infusion lines.
