CD Register

PTS 5 now includes an optional CD Register module that can be used to keep track of transactions relating to the movement of controlled drugs (CDs). It is designed to be an electronic implementation of the "CD books" that were previously hand-written.

Using the CD register, staff are able to create orders for CDs that are then tracked through the dispensing process and delivered back to the ward, where the transactions relating to the receipt and onward administration to a patient can be recorded and witnessed.

Patient’s own CDs can also be receipted and administered in the CD register, as you can record transactions for stock that is not being tracked in PTS.

The CD register module features a live summary of CD stock levels (ward and patients own) as well as a detailed list of transactions.

Additionally, the CD register module includes functionality to perform CD key handovers and balance checks.

Prerequisites

• Purchase a CD Register license key.
• Update to PTS 5.0.0.47+
• Configure Application Settings to allow use of CD Register module.
• For this feature to work in any meaningful way, you will need a populated drugs table.
