vestima

Vestima is a brand name used for a system of hospital infusion preparation and delivery designed to standardize the compounding, labeling, and dispensing of sterile intravenous drugs. It is used to streamline centralized preparation of intravenous admixtures in pharmacy departments and to provide traceability from formulation to administration, with the goal of improving patient safety and workflow efficiency.

Typical Vestima systems combine hardware and software to support automated or semi-automated compounding, closed-system transfer devices, sealed admixture bags, and automated labeling. They are paired with barcode scanning and software for dose calculation, quality checks, and inventory management, enabling real-time monitoring of materials, lot numbers, and patient identifiers.

Vestima has been deployed in hospital pharmacies and infusion centers in various regions as part of broader pharmacy automation programs. Adoption typically requires validation of processes, staff training, and adherence to local regulatory standards for sterile compounding and drug administration.

Within the broader literature, the term Vestima mainly refers to this class of intravenous preparation systems, while the name can occasionally appear in unrelated product contexts; the exact features and suppliers may vary by vendor and region.
