Abstract: Methods for communicating medical information using a wearable item, such as a bracelet, comprising a QR code. In some implementations, the wearable medical item comprises a backup telephone number for obtaining medical information related to a wearer of the medical item and a security code and/or patient ID. Upon receiving a telephone call at the backup telephone number and receiving the security code and/or the patient ID and validation of the security code and/or the patient ID, medical information related to the wearer of the wearable medical item may be received, which may provide for a backup way of obtaining the medical information in the event that a first responder or other person accessing the wearable item cannot scan the QR code.
Abstract: A medical bracelet, wrist-band device, watch, piece of jewelry, or any other worn item contains a OR code for fast scanning by emergency first responders, ER teams or any other medical personnel. Scanning the QR code with a handheld device like a smartphone results in immediate retrieval of pertinent medical information either directly from the QR code, or from a dedicated website. Further security of medical information can be provided by a numerical or alphanumerical patient ID. and a PIN that can be printed on the device for fast access.
