Abstract
An infant identification device includes a clamp and a clamp container for holding the clamp. The container is supplied with the clamp sealed in sterile conditions under a cover. The clamp has a label area and the cover includes a region of pressure transferable ink. When the clamp is sealed in the container the region of pressure transferable ink lies over the label area of the clamp. Thus, writing applied to the cover over the pressure transferable ink is transferred to the label area of the clamp. Once the clamp has been inscribed, it may be removed from the container by peeling back the cover. After removal, the clamp is applied to the umbilical cord of the infant thereby providing a sealing means for the cord and a means of positive identification for the infant.
