Abstract

See full text

An inventory management system manages information regarding medical items that are stored in storage containers in a storage structure before being dispensed in conjunction with patient medical treatment. The inventory management system includes inventory sensors associated with the storage containers. Each inventory sensor senses removal or addition of medical items to or from the storage containers, and generates corresponding item inventory signals. Inventory indicia devices are disposed on the storage structure, each associated with a corresponding storage container, and each providing a visual indication that a medical item is to be added or removed. A customer computer, which is in communication with the inventory sensors and inventory indicial devices, runs an inventory application for processing item replenishment information to determine a number of medical items to be added to the storage containers, and activates the inventory indicia devices to visually indicate that medical items are to be added.
