The preparation of medicines is considered a fundamental part of the
pharmaceutical profession, in which the pharmacist is responsible for
achieving standards in terms of quality, safety and efficacy of the products.
Parenteral nutrition is a technique by which patients are administered basic
nutrients that are required for their treatment through intravenous route; due
to its special pharmacotechnical characteristics and clinical control, we think
that it must be subject to a General Process of Quality Control that must
include complete traceability and optimization of its management, from its
prescription, preparation, conservation, dispensation and even its distribution;
throughout the implementation of systematized procedures, which can be
evaluated over time. To support this process we have considered mHealth
technologies as the essential tools to carry out this management.
Prior to developing this Process, we have placed parenteral nutrition in its
current legislative environment, in its scientific context, in terms of quality
management, current information systems and our work environment. Process has been developed following the General Principles of the Hazard
Analysis and Critical Control Point System, which have required the
development of the flow chart of the traceability stages for a standard
hospital, along with the study and characterization of the main Critical Control
Points (Preparation: gravimetry, Conservation: refrigerator, Administration:
velocity / volume / filter) in the General Process of parenteral nutrition, and
then it has been adapted to our center and work area.The mSalud platform designed for this project, has been tested to comply
with a documentary model filing and labelling of the entire Process.
Evaluation and final validation of the general Process of parenteral nutrition,
has been preceded by the realization of a pilot experience in the home
parenteral nutrition, in which the success of the entire Process on the
platform has been verified.
Finally, we proceeded to evaluate and validate the General Process of
parenteral nutrition in our center; first, by examining the usability of the
mHealth platform, which was valued positively by the users, and then by total
monitoring of the Process in the face of possible unintentional errors and
quantifying the main Control Points, and all this at low cost.
