Review of Patient Pack Assembly

Producers of clinical supplies assemble patient packs by performing activities according to packaging instructions. Once an automated recipe management system is in place, where packaging instructions can be specified and execution can be electronically verified, providers of clinical supplies in the form of patient packs can concentrate on refining their processes. For packaging operations in some companies, it is required that each component be individually tracked and associated with a particular patient pack as early in the process as possible. Other organisations require that the source of each component is known, the contents of each patient pack be specified and traceable, but not that each component be known early in the process. This article is an evaluation of the implications of these two general approaches from several standpoints:

Work to properly account for each component as it goes into a patient pack
Ability to respond to requests for detailed information when an unblinding is required
Ability to handle assembly when product inventories are less than enough for a full packaging run
