Abstract (en)
An identification bracelet for use in patient identification systems is described in which the bracelet is imprintable both by thermal techniques as well as conventional ink type printing. The characters formed thereby are readable by optical character recognition readers. The bracelet is a laminate of a first film coated with a thermally sensitive coating with an opaque backing of a spun-bonded polyester or like material having the spectral background reflectivity to facilitate OCR reading. The resulting laminate is resistant to abrasion, normal solvents used in hospitals and yet has sufficient strength to maintain the shape of the characters formed thereon.
