Abstract

A system for compounding medications. The system includes one or more compounding devices, and a central computer system. The central computer system receives requests, at least some of which require the compounding of one or more medications, and pushes assignments of respective compounding tasks to the one or more compounding devices. The assignments are made based at least in part on records of performance to promote efficient use of compounding resources.

Claims (32)

1. A system for compounding of medications, the system comprising:

one or more compounding devices;

a computer, wherein each of the one or more compounding devices is in bidirectional communication with the computer via a communications network;

wherein the computer is configured to:

receive a plurality of requests, at least some for compounding of one or more medications;

maintain records of performance in compounding of one or more medications; and

for each of the requests, assigning a task of compounding the medication to one of the one or more compounding devices, wherein the assignment is performed based at least in part on records indicating speed of completion of previous tasks and in accordance with a set of rules designed to maximize speed of completion of the task and minimize pharmaceutical waste.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the one or more compounding devices is selected from a group of compounding devices consisting of a compounding assistance device, a robotic compounder, and a hazardous drug robotic compounder.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the computer is at least one of: a central server computer; and a cloud computing resource.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the records track performance of at least one of the one or more compounding devices.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the records track performance of a combination of: one of the one or more compounding devices; and an operator of that one of the one or more compounding devices.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the records of performance track speeds of performance of at least one of the one or more compounding devices.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein assigning the task of compounding the medication to at least one of the one or more compounding devices, comprises assigning respective portions the task of compounding the medication to at least two compounding devices such that the at least two compounding devices together complete the task of compounding the medication.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the respective portions of the task assigned to each of the at least two compounding devices are selected based at least on part on the performance records of the at least two compounding devices, such that the portions of the task assigned to the at least two compounding devices are expected to be completed at the same time.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the portions of the task assigned to each of the at least two compounding devices are unequal.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein assigning the task of compounding the medication to at least one of the one or more compounding devices is in accordance with a set of rules designed to promote efficient use of compounding resources.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the set of rules further determines a relative sequential order in which the compounding device to which the task is assigned will carry out the assigned task.

12. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more compounding devices reside within a single pharmacy.

13. The system of claim 1 , wherein the system comprises a plurality of compounding devices distributed among multiple pharmacies within a single facility.

14. The system of claim 1 , wherein the system comprises a plurality of compounding devices distributed among multiple facilities.

15. A method of load balancing in a compounding system, the method comprising:

receiving, at a computer, a plurality of requests for compounding of one or more medications;

monitoring availability of one or more compounding devices; and

for each of the requests, assigning a task of compounding the medication to one of the one or more compounding devices, wherein the assignment is performed based at least in part on records indicating speed of completion of previous tasks and in accordance with a set of rules designed to maximize speed of completion of the task and minimize pharmaceutical waste.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the records track performance of each of the one or more compounding devices.

17. The method of claim 15 , wherein the records track performance of a combination of: one of the one or more compounding devices; and an operator of that one of the one or more compounding devices.

18. The method of claim 15 , wherein the records track speeds of performance of at least one of the one or more compounding devices.

19. The method of claim 15 , wherein assigning the task of compounding the medication to at least one of the one or more compounding devices, comprises assigning respective portions the task of compounding the medication to at least two compounding devices such that the at least two compounding devices together complete the task of compounding the medication.

20. The method of claim 19 , wherein the respective portions of the task assigned to each of the at least two compounding devices are selected based at least on part on the performance records of the at least two compounding devices, such that the portions of the task assigned to the at least two compounding devices are expected to be completed at the same time.

21. The method of claim 20 , wherein the portions of the task assigned to each of the at least two compounding devices are unequal.

22. The method of claim 15 , wherein assigning the task of compounding the medication to at least one of the one or more compounding devices is in accordance with a set of rules designed to promote efficient use of compounding resources.

23. The method of claim 22 , wherein the set of rules further determines a relative sequential order in which the compounding device to which the task is assigned will carry out the assigned task.
