How to send a patient profile to a CDM

(VetView 2.0.5)

How do I send a patient profile to the CDM?

Patient Profiles allow you to pre-order a prescription from the CDM, allow you to look up the patient and find the product that was ordered.  This allows you to take controlled substances out in limited quantities, and appropriately track the usage of the products on a MAR.

Info
titleRequired Setup

Patient Profiles are only available if the Pharmacy selected has CDM Orders turned on.  If you do not see the option on a prescription, then check with your pharmacy administrator to see what options are available in your hospital instead.


Start a new prescription.  Select the options for In-Hospital Use, and then CDM Order (Patient Profile.)

The options that are available for this prescription will change.

Select the product you want from the CDM.

Enter in the Dose Quantity (how much the patient will get each time it is administered) and the Occurrences (the number of times it will be administered for this prescription) to calculate the Total Quantity.    Frequency of dosage should be written in the instructions.  Depending on the settings for your specific brand of CDM, the total quantity will be enforced, but the frequency will not.  Products returned to the CDM against this patient profile should add back to the total quantity available, but products that were lost or wasted will count against it. 

Fill out the rest of the prescription, and Request and Approve as normal.  VetView will send the Patient Profile to the CDM, where it will be available to dispense against.  Please see your hospital administrator for the specifics of each CDM (Cubex, Pyxis, Omnicell) as the user interface for each machine is different.

MARs will need to be filled out against the prescription once it has been dispensed on the patient record.
