Zusammenfassung:Methods and systems are provided for assessing compatibility between forms of medication in a clinical setting. Generally, a medical order for a patient is received, which specifies a task with an initial form of a medical agent to be administered to the patient. When a clinician attempts to administer the medical agent to the patient, a current form of the medical agent is received from a scanning device, for example. As such, it may be determined whether the current form is compatible with the initial form. When it is determined that the current form is not compatible with the initial form, an error may be generated and issued in an effort to prevent administration of the current form to the patient.
