    Objective: To identify errors in the preparation of parenteral nutrition through routine controls. Methodology: This was a prospective, descriptive study conducted during October and November 2022. The parenteral nutrition solutions were weighed, and their pH was measured. The theoretical weight was calculated based on the density and volume of each medication, with the acceptable percentage error for gravimetric accuracy being ±5% for preparations (≥300 ml) and ±3% for preparations (<300 ml). The medication control was conducted by comparing production sheets with medication consumption sheets. Results: A total of 384 parenteral nutrition solutions were analyzed, and 15 (3.9%) had gravimetric errors outside the acceptable range. Among the 221 preparations <300 ml, 11 (5.0%) were incorrect; and among the 163 preparations ≥300 ml, 4 (2.5%) were incorrect. All parenteral nutrition solutions had a pH within the acceptable range. In the medication control, 15 errors (1.3%) were detected: adding more volume of a medication in 7 cases (46.7%), adding less volume in 5 cases (33.3%), and using the wrong product in 3 cases (20%). Conclusions: Preparation errors were identified through routine controls, preventing them from being administered to patients. The most frequent gravimetric error occurred in preparations with a volume <300 ml, and all parenteral nutrition solutions had an appropriate pH.
