Maternity Identification Wristbands
Maternity Wristband (Mother-Baby Kit): Unequivocal Traceability from Birth
The Absolute Priority: Mother-Baby Cross-Identification
In the maternity environment, dual identification between mother and newborn is a fundamental protocol that prevents errors and guarantees peace of mind for the family. At ABC Etiquetaje, our Maternity Wristband Kits are designed as a comprehensive solution ensuring unequivocal traceability at the most critical moment: birth and the first hours of life.
Our kits meet and exceed WHO safety recommendations and national identification protocols.
Kit Contents: Guaranteed Traceability
Each maternity kit provides the necessary elements for accurate and instantaneous identification in the delivery suite:
- Adult Wristband (for the Mother): With space for personal data and a unique identification code.
- Paediatric/Neonatal Wristband (for the Baby): Typically two wristbands, one for the wrist and one for the ankle, providing double security for the newborn.
- Additional Label (Optional): A detachable label to adhere to the medical record or the baby's cot, ensuring the printed barcode is linked to the medical register.
The Perfect Link: The mother's and baby's wristbands are printed simultaneously and share the same unique identification number and the same barcode or QR code, making mix-ups impossible.
Quality Features for Mother and Baby
We have taken care of every detail to offer a product that combines the necessary safety with the comfort required by a mother and her newborn.
For the Newborn (Neonatal Wristband):
- Extra-Soft Material: Manufactured from medical-grade thermal polypropylene and latex-free,it is particularly flexible for the neonate's extremely sensitive skin.
- Minimal Fit: Designed to be narrow enough for a secure fit on the wrist or ankle, without causing discomfort.
- High Durability: Ability to withstand bathing, creams, and paediatric disinfectant gels without the print fading.
For the Mother (Adult Wristband):
- Resistance to the Hospital Environment: Manufactured to withstand prolonged use and exposure to disinfectants without deteriorating.
- Secure Closure: A tamper-proof mechanism ensuring the wristband cannot be transferred or removed without being cut.

- Print Quality: Ensures that data, including the MRN (Medical Record Number), are crisp and legible on the small size of the neonatal wristband.
- Safety and Savings: By using the same printing material (direct thermal), the management of consumables on the ward is simplified.
