Description
Product Overview
The PDC Healthcare Anesthesia Label, model LAN-2-161, is a purpose‑engineered labeling solution that directly addresses the stringent requirements of modern anesthesiology practice. Each label is manufactured to meet the Joint Commission National Patient Safety Goal 03.04.01, ensuring that every medication administered in the operating suite is clearly identified, accurately documented, and safely tracked throughout the patient care continuum. The label’s dimensions are compact—measuring just one inch on each side—and it weighs a mere 1.6 ounces, making it easy to handle while still providing a robust surface for critical information.
One of the most distinctive features of this label is its adherence to ASTM color standards for user‑applied drug labels. By employing a standardized palette of colors, the label instantly conveys the drug class, reducing the cognitive load on clinicians and minimizing the risk of selecting the wrong medication. In addition, the label incorporates tall‑man lettering, a proven strategy that emphasizes the most confusing portions of drug names, thereby further protecting against medication errors caused by look‑alike or sound‑alike drug names.
The label also introduces new data fields that are not typically found on standard anesthesia labels. These fields include dedicated spaces for quantity, volume, date prepared, and expiration date/time. By capturing this additional information at the point of preparation, the label supports comprehensive documentation that satisfies both regulatory compliance and internal quality assurance processes. The inclusion of these fields also streamlines the workflow for pharmacy technicians and anesthesia providers, who can now record all essential details on a single, easy‑to‑read label.
Durability is another cornerstone of the LAN-2-161 label. Constructed from a high‑grade, water‑resistant material, the label resists smudging, tearing, and fading even in the demanding environment of an operating room. The adhesive backing is formulated to maintain a strong bond to a variety of surfaces, including glass vials, plastic syringes, and metal ampoules, ensuring that the label remains affixed throughout the medication’s lifecycle. This durability not only protects the integrity of the information but also reduces waste by extending the usable life of each label.
From a logistical perspective, the label is packaged in a compact, easy‑to‑store format that fits seamlessly into existing inventory systems. The product is identified by the model number LAN-2-161 and carries the ASIN B00VMFD4BE, facilitating quick lookup and reordering through standard e‑commerce platforms. Its best‑seller rank within the Industrial & Scientific category underscores its popularity among healthcare professionals who prioritize safety and efficiency in medication labeling.

Usage
The Anesthesia Label is intended for use in a wide range of clinical settings, including hospital operating rooms, ambulatory surgery centers, and specialized anesthesia clinics. It is particularly valuable in high‑volume environments where rapid turnover of medications demands clear, consistent labeling to prevent cross‑contamination and dosing errors. By providing a standardized visual language, the label facilitates quick identification by anesthesiologists, nurse anesthetists, and pharmacy staff alike.
In practice, the label is applied at the point of drug preparation. The user fills in the quantity, volume, preparation date, and expiration date/time fields, then affixes the label to the medication container. The tall‑man lettering and ASTM color coding immediately convey the drug’s identity, while the additional fields ensure that all relevant data is captured for later review. This workflow supports both real‑time safety checks and retrospective audits, making the label an essential component of any medication safety program.
