OBJECTIVE： To improve the automation and information level of Pharmacy intravenous admixture service （PIVAS）， and provide reference for the PIVAS development. METHODS： Related functions of DS8000 intelligent sorting system and its effect of PIVAS were introduced； work environment， workflow， work efficiency， labor intensity and sorting error before and after the system application were compared. RESULTS： The application of intelligent sorting system achieved the automation of multiple links including reviewing， sorting， automatically counting， automatically generating hand-over lists of departments， statistical inquiring for related information in finished soft bag infusion sorting. Compared with manual sorting， it only covered less area， working environment was neat and orderly， workflow links was reduced （6 vs. 10）， work time was shortened （average time for sorting per bag of infusion 13.53 s vs. 3.11 s）， labor intensity was decreased， and work error rate was reduced （0.128‰ vs. 0.013‰）； meanwhile， it improved the management for shading drugs， and achieved data analysis of PIVAS and management information. CONCLUSIONS： The application of DS8000 intelligent sorting system has improved the automation and information of PIVAS， and promoted the construction and development of PIVAS.
