A medication inventory system may include a medication tray that includes partitions defining compartments and having a tray identifier associated therewith, and each compartment may store a respective medication. The system may include an imaging apparatus, and a processor and an associated memory cooperating with the imaging apparatus to determine the tray identifier of the medication tray, and maintain in the memory a desired respective medication within each compartment based upon the tray identifier. A respective medication image of the medication within each compartment may be obtained and machine learning may be used to determine a medication within each compartment based upon the respective medication image. A discrepancy may be determined between the determined medication within each compartment and the desired respective medication within each compartment, and when so, a display notification may be generated that includes a visual indicator corresponding to each compartment determined to have the discrepancy.

Medication inventory system including machine learning based medication discrepancy determination and related methods

A medication inventory system may include a medication tray that includes partitions defining compartments. The medication tray has a tray identifier associated therewith, and each compartment is for storing a respective medication having a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag associated therewith. The system may include an RFID tag reader, and a processor and an associated memory configured to maintain in the memory a desired respective medication within each compartment based upon the tray identifier, and cooperate with the RFID tag reader to determine the respective medication within each compartment based upon the respective RFID tag. The processor and associated memory may also be configured to determine a discrepancy between the determined medication within each compartment and the desired respective medication within each compartment, and when so generate a display notification that includes a visual indicator corresponding to each compartment determined to have the discrepancy.

Medication inventory system including RFID based medication discrepancy determination and related methods

A medication inventory system may include a medication tray that includes compartments for storing respective medications with each medication having a respective medication identifier associated therewith. The medication tray may have a tray identifier associated therewith. The medication inventory system may also include a mobile wireless communications device configured to obtain images of the medication tray and generate a current medication stocking list of the medication tray from the images. The medication inventory system may also be configured to determine a desired medication stocking list for the medication tray based upon the tray identifier and determine at least one missing medication based upon the current medication stocking list and the desired medication stocking list.

Medication inventory system including mobile device based missing medication determination and related methods

A pharmaceutical transport system may include a pneumatic tube network and a pharmaceutical transport container movable within the pneumatic tube network. The pharmaceutical transport container may include a tubular container having open and closed positions for receiving at least one pharmaceutical therein, and an electronic lock securing the tubular container in the closed position and opening based upon a match between an entered digital code and a current changing digital code.
