Transactions recorded by the TORBAL Server are gathered into seven different reports. The "All Transactions Report" displays information regarding all performed pill counting transaction. Each transaction is stamped with a date and a time, and indicates the user name, workstation ID, drug name and NDC, as well as the actual count. Other reports such as the "User Transactions" or the "Unit Transactions" display transactions that were performed by a specific user, or on a specific DRX workstation. Each report can be printed in a printer friendly format or exported to a spread sheet in a .csv format. When exporting data to a spreadsheet, the system automatically generates .csv file and opens it in your default spreadsheet program.
Pill Counting Techniques |
The most popular method for counting pills in a pharmacy is the good old counting tray with a tongue depressor for pushing the pills. It is inexpensive in terms of the equipment required, but inefficient for counting out a month’s supply of drugs that are taken twice or more per day. It is easy to understand and operate, but requires frequent cleaning to avoid cross contamination as the pills being counted are poured directly on to the hard counting surface. Pills are usually poured by hand directly from the supply bottle in sufficient quantity to assure that the desired count can be reached, and then swept into a collection groove in small quantities (like five at a time) until the required count is reached. The counting is done in the operators head. |
