Abstract
Data characterizing a medication container (e.g., an identifier, etc.) is received from a manually administrable medication device within a clinical workflow. Thereafter, one or more data records are generated, modified, or appended to include a portion of the received data. Subsequent requests that include the medication source from remote sources are answered by transmitting data stored in the one or more data records. Related apparatus, systems, methods, and articles are also described.
