DESCRIPTION
Medication management System
Pyxis MedStation® system from CareFusion is a leading automated dispensing system supporting decentralized medication management. Barcode scanning to help ensure accurate medication dispensing, features to prevent loading of the wrong medication and active alerts to provide an added safety precaution for high risk medications are just a few of the ways the Pyxis MedStation system can help your facility support safe and efficient medication management. By taking full advantage of the Pyxis MedStation system, the Hospital of Saint Raphael was able to decrease their time to first dose by 94%, and free up pharmacist time to launch an anticoagulant management program in support of NPSG 3E.

6Replies3 years ago | Looking for technical manual We purchased this on auction to use in our nursing lab for nursing students. The drawers are locked shut and we aren't able to get into the computer system. Nor will we be linking it to a system. We will not be using real medications with it and need to be able to open and close the drawers for our clinical practice labs. Looking for the technical manual, or a resource that may be of help. Thank you.Reply |
2Replies4 years ago | Outdate Tracking issue Is there a way to turn outdate tracking hospital-wide without unloading/reloading every pocket for each machine? Our hospital system decided to turn it on for all machines, which all run version 1.4.4. Just curious if anyone knows a more efficient and easier way to accomplish this.Reply |
