Introducing IVX Station: A New Era in IV Compounding
IV compounding robot can reduce human error, but adoption has been limited due to throughput and reliability concerns.
Omnicell’s IVX Station, offered through our IV Compounding Service, changes all that. Our completely reimagined, fully automated IV compounding robot addresses industry issues head on, while delivering patient safety, accuracy, cost savings, supply chain control, and compliance benefits.
Innovative Design Delivers 3x the Throughput 1 and Enhanced Reliability
- Faster next-generation robot arm and parallel processing
- Precision-machined “superstructure” design eliminates repeated recalibration – the leading cause of IV robot downtime
- New, simplified software design further boosts uptime
Powerful Technology in a Small Footprint
- Barcode scanning, advanced optical recognition, gravimetric verification, and auto-labeling support safe, accurate compounding of IV syringes and bags in an ISO Class 5 environment
- Footprint is comparable to that of a four-foot hood, making it easy to fit in existing pharmacy cleanrooms
Complete Service for Delivering Outcomes
IVX Station is the cornerstone of our IV Compounding Service, which combines the groundbreaking IV robot with analytics tools and on-site operational assistance. Through a monthly subscription you’ll have access to:
- Professional Services expertise for realizing faster time-to-value
- Resident robotic expert to operate IVX Station, freeing existing staff for other duties
- Customer Success Services for ongoing optimization
Health systems are averaging 70 percent greater CSP production with this service model. 2
