To evaluate the impact of implementing an automated system (Exacta-Mix 2400® Baxa) on the quality of the elaboration of PN (parenteral nutrition)

N= 101

• Automation means an increase in accuracy control and a decrease in the risk ofexceeding acceptable limits.

• Despite the difficulties of implementing a new technological process, robotisationtends to become an essential in Hospital Pharmacy Services and allows animprovement in the integral quality of care.

§ Gravimetric control is a strategy used for the quality control in the elaboration of PN.§ Regulatory agencies used to consider as an acceptable margin of error of 5%, but it is being advisable to reduce

it to 3%, especially in paediatric nutrition.§ A comparative gravimetric control was carried out:

§ We analysed the deviations from the theoretical weight and the percentage of preparations that exceeded 3%.§ A K-W test was performed using the software R Statistics for the comparison of the means of deviation.

PN developed the first week of December 2015(manual procedure)

VS NP developed the same week one year later (with the automated system)

A total of 144 PNs were analysed: 77 manuals and 77 automated

ü Manual preparation of parenteral nutrition is associated with a greater gravimetric error due to human preparation, this is especially important in very low weight nutrition, such as neonatal nutrition.

% Variability in weight Number of PN that deviatefrom the maximum tolerated limit (3% or 5%)
