Medication barcode scanning

We are looking for the best arm band for neonates related to barcode scanning medication administration. Could you all post pictures of what you currently use? (Obviously not of a real patient armband).

Featured Replies

We gave up on trying to stick them to our existing band system. Eventually we will have the small square instead of the long barcode that will fit better. We put the sticker on our pulseox probe cable (the disposable part) since it is always attached to the baby.

We also use the little Posey bands.

We also use something similar to the posey band. For med administration we scan a duplicate of the patient armband that is taped to the foot of the isolette in order to minimize stimulation to baby. I always verify armband with the posey band with my first hands-on/assessment.

We also use a posey, but its on the baby's ankle, and it has an extention on it so it can stick out through the opening at the front of isolette so we dont disturb the baby :yes:
