Intelligent Hospital Systems Announces 2 Million Medication Doses Dispensed Safely and Accurately
Intelligent Hospital Systems (IH Systems), maker of the RIVA pharmacy IV compounding system, today announced its technology has safely and accurately prepared more than 2 million medication doses globally since its introduction in 2008. RIVA, the only fully-automated system available on the market today, prepares medications for syringes and IV bags in an aseptic environment for pediatric, general and cancer hospitals and compounding centers.
“We are excited about RIVA’s ability to achieve such an impressive milestone,” said Dr. Niels Erik Hansen, president and CEO of IH Systems. “This proves that RIVA consistently dispenses doses safely and accurately, which is particularly important given this year’s pharmacy product recalls and outbreaks linked to contaminated IV medications. Plus, new compounding legislation only increases the need among healthcare providers for reliable and efficient methods to deliver IV medications to patients.”
