Towards a closed-loop medication process – the integration of a smart medication cart with a mobile app
In the future, it will be possible to open a medication cart’s patient-specific drawer using the Medanets app. Medanets is currently implementing an integration with Alphatron Medical Innovation’s medication dispensing solution AMiS-PRO, but the integration can also be done with other smart medication carts.
For safe pharmacotherapy
The integration of the smart medication cart and the Medanets app supports the closed-loop medication process, whose main purpose is to minimise breaks in the flow of information and human error in pharmacotherapy.
Medications prescribed to a patient are dispensed in a patient-specific drawer in a medication cart, the opening of which requires identification using the barcode in the patient wristband. The integration being implemented allows identification via the Medanets app.
The nurse:
- logs in to the Medanets app.
- safely identifies the medication cart and the patient with the integrated barcode reader.
- sees the medications prescribed to the patient.
- opens the patient-specific drawer in the medication cart by pressing a button in the app.
- makes an administration entry of the medications.
The right patient gets a right dose of the right medication!
