| description | Introduction
Conventionally, various parenteral nutrition (PN) components are individually administered considering an individual neonate's requirements. More recently, standardized PN (SPN) formulations have been initiated for preterm neonates, which may benefit from the enhanced nutrient supply, less administration and prescription errors, reduced risk of infectious disease, and cost-effectiveness.
Methodology
A multicentered, pre-post intervention-based study was conducted at tertiary neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in Karachi, Pakistan. Post-graduate residents of neonatology and pediatrics working in NICUs were included in the study, and their perspective was attained regarding PN formulation and a prescription for time consumption, ease, calculation errors, and general feedback. Independent T-test was applied to assess the statistical difference between the pre-and post-implementation of PN formulation for total time required for PN calculation, whereas for the rest of the quantitative variables Mann-Whitney U test was computed.
Results
The total time required to do the entire writing process, calculating and ordering PN, was 17.1±6.9 whereas significantly (p-value of |

Results
The total time required to do the entire writing process, calculating and ordering PN, was 17.1±6.9 whereas significantly (p-value of <0.0001) reduced to 10.5±5.7 after implementing SPN prescriptions. Calculation errors were reduced from 32% to 12%, and writing errors were also decreased from 35% to 8% when the standardized parenteral nutritional formulation was applied.
Conclusion
Our findings show that implementing standardized prescriptions in the NICU has improved medication safety, with the most consistent benefit by reducing medication errors and time management. The SPN prescriptions save time for post-graduate residents, physicians, and pharmacists by eliminating previously required repetitive activities and calculations.</description><identifier>ISSN: 2168-8184</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 2168-8184</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.7759/cureus.15226</identifier><identifier>PMID: 34178539</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Palo Alto (CA): Cureus</publisher><subject>Pediatric Surgery ; Pediatrics ; Quality Improvement</subject><ispartof>Curēus (Palo Alto, CA), 2021-05, Vol.13 (5), p.e15226-e15226</ispartof><rights>Copyright © 2021, Kumar et al. 2021 Kumar et al.</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><oa>free_for_read</oa><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c248t-b042fb43b8bc82b30914105f139e9aa887ebdb80d272a89609655ef4aa651513</cites></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktopdf>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8223258/pdf/$$EPDF$$P50$$Gpubmedcentral$$Hfree_for_read</linktopdf><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8223258/$$EHTML$$P50$$Gpubmedcentral$$Hfree_for_read</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>230,314,724,777,781,882,27905,27906,53772,53774</link.rule.ids></links><search><creatorcontrib>Kumar, Vikram</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Rahim, Anum</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Choudry, Erum</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Jabbar, Rafia</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Khowaja, Waqar H</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Ariff, Shabina</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Ali, Syed Rehan</creatorcontrib><title>A Pre-Post Intervention-Based Study Investigating the Impact of Standardized Parenteral Nutrition at Tertiary Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in Karachi, Pakistan</title><title>Curēus (Palo Alto, CA)</title><description>Introduction
