OverviewRIVA® is a fully automated IV compounding system purpose-built to prepare sterile IV syringes and IV bags. It handles hazardous and non-hazardous preparations, providing automated workflows to improve medication safety, accuracy, traceability and operational efficiency.
Key Capabilities- Automated preparation of sterile IV syringes and IV bags
- Supports hazardous and non-hazardous drug compounding
- Barcode-verified label generation when integrated with Codonics Safe Label System (SLS)
- Complete electronic audit trail for traceability and regulatory documentation
Compliance & SafetyDesigned to help hospitals maintain compliance with USP <797> and USP <800> compounding chapters. RIVA aligns with NIOSH and OSHA guidance and is North American safety listed and CE marked.
Operational Benefits- Precision and reproducibility to reduce dosing and labeling errors
- Reduced human error and contamination risk through robotic accuracy
- Reduced pharmaceutical waste via optimized batch sizes and extended beyond-use dating
- Lower labor and operational costs by automating repetitive tasks
- Consistent throughput with minimal downtime to support long-term savings
Integration & LabelingIntegrates with hospital label and drug database systems to enable full-color, barcode-verified labels (e.g., Codonics SLS) that match approved hospital drug databases—minimizing medication identification errors and standardizing OR medication labeling.
Use Cases & EvidenceUsed in hospital pharmacy environments for aseptic compounding of IV medications and syringes. Provides end-to-end documentation and traceability for each dose prepared. Promotional materials reference milestone production volumes exceeding millions of sterile doses.
