Approximately 50% of the pharmacy man-hours committed to providing a parenteral nutrition service at the Children's Hospital, Birmingham were spent in calculations, form filling and record keeping. An increasing demand for the service, with no extra staff available, meant that the service had to be made more efficient. A 90% time saving was achieved by using a microcomputer to free the pharmacy staff from many of the laborious mathematical and clerical chores. The program was developed by a member of the nutritional care team; this meant that it was designed with the specific needs of the service in mind. In addition the detail and accuracy of patient data recording have been greatly improved.
在伯明翰儿童医院，提供肠外营养服务所投入的药剂师工时中，约50%用于计算、填表和记录保存。对该服务的需求不断增加，却没有额外的工作人员，这意味着必须提高服务效率。通过使用微机将药剂师从许多繁琐的数学和文书工作中解放出来，节省了90%的时间。该程序由营养护理团队的一名成员开发；这意味着它在设计时考虑到了该服务的特殊需求。此外，患者数据记录的详细程度和准确性也有了很大提高。
