ABSTRACT:
A wearable electronic data collection and storage device is used for recording field medical data. The device is small, portable and easily worn, similar to a watch or medallion and is capable of interfacing with a large, external accessing system. The device includes an application specific integrated circuit card which is received in and is removable from a wearable/portable data entry, storage and retrieval device. The card includes a programmable memory for storing data. These two elements, when combined, form the MEDTAG unit. This unit also includes a memory for storing software, and a microprocessor for reading and entering data, and executing the software. The wearable/portable data entry storage and retrieval device includes an electrical connection to the removable card, a display for showing menus and data to a user, and two manual input buttons allowing the user to select from the menus and enter data into the programmable memory of the card.
