Abstract: A medication guidance system that securely stored blister packs as well as keep accurate inventory of specific medication within the blister packs. The medication guidance system includes a drawer housing, a blister pack drawer, a latch mechanism, a plurality of light sources, a plurality of cameras, and a microcomputer. The drawer housing is the structural body and holds the blister pack drawer through a drawer hole. The blister pack drawer is slidably positioned within the drawer hole. The light sources and the cameras are positioned within the drawer housing and oriented towards the blister pack drawer to visually identify the contents placed within the blister pack drawer. The data taken by the cameras is graphically analyzed by the microcomputer for inventory and identification purposes. The latch mechanism is mechanically integrated in between the drawer housing and the blister pack drawer to manage access to the blister pack drawer.

Abstract: A medication guidance system and method that is employed for inventory management and to facilitate the proper administration of medication utilizes a medication blister cassette. A blister housing for receiving a medication package is positioned within a cassette case and is electronically connected to a cassette microcomputer. The blister housing has a plurality of blister housing compartments for receiving a plurality of blisters of the medication package. The cassette microcomputer logs user activities, displays medication information, alerts a user to administer medication, and activates a compartment light for each of the plurality of blister housing compartments. The cassette microcomputer can also communicate with a user computer and a database center through a transceiver.

Abstract: A system and processes for automating and verifying medication order fulfillment and medication administration compliance. A medication package is formed from a package back pane and blister housing, and filled in accordance to a prescription order. The package back pane has a medication housing color pattern that contrasts medication colorings of a prescribed medication, such that a number of empty medication blisters can be determined from a package image matrix generated by analyzing the medication housing color pattern, the medication colorings, and a plurality of reference marks on the package back pane from a captured image of the medication package. The package image matrix is compared to a previous package image matrix in order to determine if the prescribed medication has been administered properly. A unique prescription code of the medication package can program a processor with a scheduling profile, medication order information, and the package image matrix.
