This functionality streamlines pharmacy and nursing workflows by eliminating the need for manual re-dispensing pursuant to manual tracking or nursing-to-pharmacy electronic requests. An automatic scheduled dispensing workflow was developed and piloted at a select pharmacy, with subsequent expansion throughout the health system. A retrospective, descriptive analysis was performed comparing the following data points before and after implementation: total dispenses, bags returned, and in-basket messages for continuous infusion dispenses. At the pilot site and the expansion sites, after implementation the number of in-basket messages per continuous infusion dispense decreased by 49% and 65%, respectively. An increase in the number of medication returns and the number of wasted bags per continuous infusion dispense was observed for both the pilot site and the expansion sites.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A continuous infusion scheduled dispensing workflow was successfully implemented within a health system.
