Abstract
A system for integrating and labeling a plurality of tablet orders is described. The system comprises a graphical user interface configured to receive one or more inputs for a plurality of tablets associated with a particular patient. A software module is configured to compile the inputs into an integrated order. The system further comprises an integrated label coupled to a package containing a dose comprised of the plurality of tablets input into the graphical user interface. The integrated label indicates information about the first dose and the second dose.
Claims21
A system for integrating and labeling a plurality of tablet orders, comprising:
- a graphical user interface that receives:
- a first input for a first plurality of tablets associated with a particular patient;
- and
- a second input for a second plurality of tablets associated with the particular patient;
- a software module that compiles the first input and the second input into an integrated order;
- a filling system that receives the integrated prescription order and fills a plurality of primary packages with at least one of the first plurality of tablets and at least one of the second plurality of tablets according to the integrated prescription order;
- an automated inspection module that inspects each of the plurality of primary packages by analyzing at least one of a tablet shape and a tablet color to determine that each primary package has been filled with medications according to the integrated prescription order, wherein the automated inspection module operates at visual wavelengths and analyzes the tablet color and the tablet shape;
- and
- an integrated label associated with each primary package of the plurality of primary packages, the integrated label including a bar code associated with the integrated prescription order, information about the first plurality of tablets, and information about the second plurality of tablets.
A system for integrating and labeling a plurality of tablet orders, comprising:
- a graphical user interface that receives:
- a first input for a first plurality of tablets associated with a particular patient;
- and
- a second input for a second plurality of tablets associated with the particular patient;
- a software module that compiles the first input and the second input into an integrated order;
- a filling system that receives the integrated prescription order and fills a plurality of primary packages with at least one of the first plurality of tablets and at least one of the second plurality of tablets according to the integrated prescription order;
- an automated inspection module that inspects each of the plurality of primary packages by analyzing at least one of a tablet shape and a tablet color to determine that each primary package has been filled with medications according to the integrated prescription order, wherein the automated inspection module operates at visual wavelengths and analyzes the tablet color and the tablet shape;
- an integrated label associated with each package of the plurality of primary packages, the integrated label including a bar code associated with the integrated prescription order, information about the first plurality of tablets, and information about the second plurality of tablets;
- and
- a secondary container that contains the plurality of primary packages, the secondary container comprising a secondary label.
A method for integrating and labeling a plurality of tablet orders, comprising:
- receiving with a graphical user interface:
- a first input for a first plurality of tablets associated with a particular patient;
- and
- a second input for a second plurality of tablets associated with the particular patient;
- compiling with a software module the first input and the second input into an integrated order;
- receiving, by a filling system, the integrated prescription order;
- filling, by the filling system, a plurality of primary packages with at least one of the first plurality of tablets and at least one of the second plurality of tablets according to the integrated prescription order;
- inspecting, by an automated inspection module, each of the plurality of primary packages by analyzing at least one of a tablet shape and a tablet color to determine that each primary package has been filled with medications according to the integrated prescription order, wherein the automated inspection module operates at visual wavelengths and analyzes the tablet color and the tablet shape;
- and
- generating with the software module an integrated label for each primary package of the plurality of primary packages, the integrated label including a bar code associated with the integrated prescription order, information about the first plurality of tablets and the second plurality of tablets.
