Abstract
A system for safe delivery of drug to a patient employs a programmable memory card for transferring drug delivery instructions and patient information between a server in a pharmacy and a drug delivery apparatus in a patient room. The server in the pharmacy checks the prescription for safety and the drug delivery apparatus checks for the drug delivery instructions and also the patient identity. The drug delivery apparatus records the information about the drug delivered to the patient onto the programmable memory card at the end of the drug delivery.
