Abstract
A blood recipient verification device includes a patient ID label region including a top ID label layer on which information can be imprinted, a bottom layer comprising an image material in underlining registry with the top layer, an elongate strap adjacent the patient ID label region, and an identification label region that is removably attached to either an end of the patient ID label region or an end of the elongate strap. At least a portion of the elongate strap may be transparent so as to provide a window through which information on the bottom layer can be read while protecting such information from being damaged. An adhesive coating may be applied to the same surface as the removable identification labels of the identification label region so that when the labels are affixed to a blood sample collection tube, the labels will not be exposed but be protected.
