Improve the Management of Pharmaceutical Inventory by Using an IoT Based Information System
Yu-Tso Chen and Hao-Yun Chang
Abstract—The gradual development of medical technology advances the better medical industry meanwhile increases a variety of medicines to treat various disease. However, a great amount of medicines make the management works more complex due to their different types and functionalities. How to efficiently manage the pharmaceutical inventory is therefore a critical issue in a hospital information system. The Internet of Things (IoT) consisting of many sorts of sensors to help deal with complex problems is a considerable means of advancing existed service and systems. This paper presents a conceptual design of a pharmaceutical inventory management system that utilizes the characteristics of IoT. The proposed IoT based system not only provides the pharmaceutical inventory management functions on a framework constructed by Arduino and NFC devices; it also indicates a valuable research direction of inviting the strength of IoT to improve the performance of hospital management operations.
