ABSTRACT:
This invention pertains to an emergency medical dosage kit adapted to facilitate indication of the administration of emergency medication. The kit comprises (a) a predetermined amount of a medicine; and (b) a drug information sheet having detachably attached thereto a strip. The strip comprises (a) a long thin body having ends; (b) a device for forming a closed loop around the limb of a patient; and (c) a device, or region of the strip, used for indicating adminstration of a dosage of medicine. The strip is detached from the sheet of material and affixed to the limb of a patient to whom the medicine has been administered. The strip provides information to subsequent attending medical personnel as to the size, time and properties of the dosage of medicine administered. Such information ensures that subsequent attending medical personnel will be fully and accurately informed of treatment administered to the patient before the arrival of the patient into their care. In one embodiment, the invention provides a method of indicating a previously-given medical dosage to subsequent attending medical personnel.
