US Patent:

Filed:
Jun 16, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/485526
Inventors:
Edward A. Kent - Wakefield RI, US
International Classification:
G09F 3/00, G09F 3/14
US Classification:
40633, 4029901, 40662
Abstract:
A tag identification card system is provided that implements a uniform standard for medical or surgical procedures. The system allows patients to elevate their own safety standards, by requiring surgery staff to follow the World Health Organization “Surgical Safety Checklist”. This invention consists of a synthetic tag identification card upon which is recorded vital patient information. The tag identification card is completed by the patient and physician at the time of consent for procedure. A non-toxic indelible marker is used and the data is covered with a clear coat. The tag identification card is then attached to the patient pre-procedure. This invention will help reduce the risks of wrong site surgery, wrong side surgery, wrong patient surgery, and improve patient safety. Further the system requires that operating room staff sign the tag identification card following each completed safety check.
