Healthcare is continuously evolving. And with that comes increasing complexity – fragmented care, staffing challenges, cybersecurity concerns, inventory visibility gaps, and regulatory pressures, just to name a few.
Today’s systems can create silos across the care continuum, keeping pharmacists and clinicians away from direct patient care. While automated dispensing cabinets (ADCs) have long been a means to help streamline workflows and reduce manual dispensing tasks, this technology has evolved little over the past decade – until now.
Omnicell’s Titan XT, introduced at the recent ASHP Midyear Clinical Meeting and Exhibition, is the next generation enterprise automated dispensing system (ADS) that combines proven automation and powerful intelligence to deliver an enhanced and more efficient medication management experience. Titan XT is designed with the security, flexibility, and ease of use to meet evolving healthcare challenges, while delivering greater pharmacy control and nursing confidence for a growing enterprise.
Powered by OmniSphere, Omnicell’s cloud-based, HITRUST-certified medication management platform, Titan XT provides an intuitive new user experience built to unify user management and task guidance, enable a global formulary, and support perpetual inventory management.
“The introduction of Titan XT marks a significant milestone for Omnicell and the journey to cloud-enabled, autonomous medication management,” said Randall Lipps, chairman, president, chief executive officer, and founder of Omnicell. “Starting with nursing floors, we are now focused on integrating every care area into the OmniSphere platform to build what we believe will be the most complete, connected automation ecosystem in healthcare.”
For pharmacy leaders, guided pharmacy task management, delivered through ongoing OmniSphere releases, is expected to provide enterprise-wide visibility and greater control of medication inventory management. Action-oriented, guided workflows are built to simplify pharmacy technician tasks allowing staff to focus on higher value activities. Centralized control of inventory management standardizes configurations, medication assignment, and recall management across the enterprise. And AI-enabled intelligence capabilities synthesize internal and external medication inventory data that will help to predict stock risks early, empower proactive decisions, and drive systemwide optimization.
For nurses, a simple dispensing experience helps to minimize time spent on locating medications. Titan XT fosters safer medication administration for nursing teams through embedded safeguards designed to help mitigate common error sources and reduce workflow disruptions, including look alike, sound alike (LASA) and override management alerts supporting dispensing safety and the industry-defined five rights of medication administration, while targeted alerts help to reduce alarm fatigue. Simplified medication retrieval workflows are built to expedite staff onboarding and reduce training burden.
Titan XT is powered by OmniSphere – the scalable, secure platform engineered to be easily deployed on existing or new Omnicell cabinets, enabling futureproof innovation while reducing IT burden through a cloud-managed infrastructure.
OmniSphere is designed to break down silos across the medication use journey. Starting at nursing floors with the launch of Titan XT, Omnicell’s innovation roadmap envisions adding new care areas over time, delivering a connected medication management ecosystem designed to improve efficiency and enhance patient safety.
