  • Title: Robots hooked on drugs. Robotic automation expands pharmacy services.
    Author: Marietti C.
    Journal: Healthc Inform; 1997 Nov; 14(11):37-8, 40, 42. PubMed ID: 10174843.
    Abstract:
    Hospitals are not known for automating labor-intensive tasks but robots are just beginning to make inroads in health-care. The first--and still only--robot grew from a class assignment to use an established technology in a new growth industry. The established technology was bar coding; the industry health-care; and the result a robotic device for the hospital pharmacy.
