Chapter 1—System overviewLIMITED RELEASE 1 DRAFT 11/17/10Pyxis MedStation system componentsThe Pyxis MedStation system is custom-configured for your facility’s needs andfor the way you do business. The Pyxis MedStation system components includethe following:• Console (one or more)—The console is the central controller andclearinghouse for all stations. Network connections provide thecommunications path between the components. The console is usually locatedin the pharmacy and stations are located throughout the facility.The console provides the management interface to enter and collectinformation. It performs the following functions:° Communicates data to and updates activity information in all the stations.° Maintains copies of all patient, user, formulary, and activity informationused to generate pharmacy reports.In some facilities, an additional computer, monitor, and keyboard can beadded in a second location as another console access point. This is also knownas a console workstation.Pyxis ® Procar, also a part of the console subsystem, is responsible forinterface communications, including the admissions, discharge, and transfer(ADT) and billing information and, if you use profile mode, the pharmacysoftware system link (patient orders and other pharmacy profile information).CareFusion representatives configure and install the Pyxis MedStation systemfor you.NOTEThe Pyxis MedStation system communications hardware and software interfacesare proprietary.• Stations (one or more)—The stations are the clients in the setup. Theyprovide secure and reliable storage for medications of all types. Theycommunicate with the console, receiving patient, order (profile mode only)and inventory information, while continuously reporting all medicationtransactions. Stations come in a variety of configurations, with a selection ofconfigurable drawers and doors to meet the needs of the various areas.• Printer—The console includes a high-speed laser printer for printing reports.• Optional Component (Pyxis ® Connect)—the Pyxis MedStation systemincorporates the Pyxis Connect product. The nurse-monitor station is a toolused outside the pharmacy, on each unit where a scan station is placed, tomonitor the status of orders in the Pyxis Connect system. The nurse-monitorstation software is usually installed on computers in the nursing unit and usedby nurses to track orders that have been scanned from particular locations.Nurses can check the status of an order at the same station from which theyattempted to remove a medication. If a nurse discovers that a new drug is notyet on the patient’s profile, he or she can log on to Pyxis Connect from thePyxis MedStation system to check the status of the order.4 Pyxis MedStation 4000 System Console User Guide
