Abstract: An electronic medication storage cabinet includes a plurality of drawers configured with a plurality of sensors arranged to identify a positioning of storage pockets within the drawers. Upon receiving an indication of a new medicine container to be loaded in the cabinet, a sequence of steps to load the medicine container into the cabinet is generated based on a mapping algorithm. A first step is displayed on a display the cabinet, and a determination is made as to whether the first step is associated with one of the plurality of drawers. In response to determining that the first step is associated with one of the plurality of drawers, the drawer is automatically unlocked. In response to determining that the first step is successfully completed, a determination of whether execution of any additional steps is pending and indicated on the display.

Abstract: A gravimetric verification system, method, and computer program product for automated detection and correction of reference density information based. An expected density of a fluid drug can be determined from the measured mass of a fluid drug and the intended volume of the fluid drug to be delivered to a medication container. The expected density can be compared to previously calculated densities for the fluid to verify the accuracy of a reference density value, verify the measurements and functional status of the measuring device for the fluid drug, and, in some instances, provide control or configuration commands to adjust one or more devices.

Abstract: Systems and methods for optimizing drug management are disclosed. A disclosed system implements a method that includes receiving, from a first client system, a new drug code and drug information associated with new drug code, determining, by the computing system based on the received drug information, a predetermined medication and a first local identifier used by the first client system to identify the predetermined medication, determining, based at least in part on identifying the first local identifier, one or more second local identifiers that identify the predetermined medication, identifying, based on the one or more second local identifiers, a plurality of second client systems that use the one or more second local identifiers, and automatically providing, an instruction to each of the plurality of second client systems to associate, at the second client system, one or more corresponding second local identifiers with the new drug code.

Abstract: A system is provided for storage and reconstitution of IV solutions. The system may include one or more storage and reconstitution devices each configured to store and manipulate IV solution containers containing IV solutions in crystalline form that include hydration chemicals and therapeutic drugs. Crystalline hydration chemicals may include crystalline salts and sugars. The containers may be dimensionally precise enough for mechanical manipulation and configured such that sharp objects such as needles are not needed for fluid delivery to or from the container. Each storage and reconstitution device may store stacked containers and may include components for retrieval of a container from the storage and for reconstitution of the contents therein using a sterile water source within the device. IV doses may be manufactured, under appropriate standards, that can be mechanically reconstituted to produce high-quality doses in real time on the patient care unit or in the pharmacy.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for identifying and tracking diverters of controlled medications. A system may receive signals indicative of medication dispensing activities by one or more health care providers such as nurses, physicians, or pharmacists. Based on the received signals, the system may determine suspected diverters and provide a graphical interface identifying corresponding factors related to usage, waste, dosage, or other factors associated with the suspected diverters. The graphical interface may provide a list of top diverters and display dispensing transactions performed at a dispensing device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for identifying and tracking diverters of controlled medications. A system may receive signals indicative of medication dispensing activities by one or more health care providers such as nurses, physicians, or pharmacists. Based on the received signals, the system may determine one or more factor scores for each health care provider. The factor scores may be numerical indicators of potential diversion for corresponding factors related to usage, waste, dosage, or other factors. The factor scores may be combined to determine a total diversion score for each of one or more potential diverters.
