ABSTRACT:
A cushioned wristband includes a carrier having a multi-layered band portion and a strap attached such as by sewing or heat welding to the back of the band portion of the carrier. The band has a surface with loop material and the strap has a surface of hook material, the hook and loop surfaces being intended to secure the band in place as it is wrapped about a patient's appendage. The strap is appropriately sized to insert through one or both of two cinch slots of a self-laminating hang tag, and pressed against the patch of adhesive to secure it to the wristband. A fixative, such a an adhesive patch with peelable label is located about in the middle of the back of the strap and is used to closely position the hang tag along the length of the strap and ensure it remains flat against the strap/wristband as the wristband is worn. Alternate fixative arrangements are disclosed including hook and loop patches, etc, located at different positions on either or both of the hang tag and strap. The hang tag may be printed with patient information and separated from a sheetlet or page sized business form processed through a printer for imaging of patient information thereon. The band portion of the carrier includes a cushioned layer of soft foamy or spongy material for contacting a patient's skin to thereby substantially eliminate any possibility for abrasion, rash, or other irritation or injury to the patient through wearing of the wristband.
