Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic wristband accessories technology, and in particular to a locking device to prevent electronic wristbands worn by hospital patients from being removed without authorization or accidentally falling off. Background Technology

[0002] In hospital settings, electronic wristbands play a crucial role in patient management. They not only record basic patient information such as name, age, diagnosis, and allergy history, facilitating verification by medical staff and preventing medical errors, but also connect to various medical monitoring devices to monitor patients' vital signs in real time, such as heart rate, blood pressure, and blood oxygen saturation, providing critical data support for medical staff to promptly understand patients' health conditions. Especially in neonatal care, electronic wristbands are widely used to accurately identify newborns and monitor their vital signs in real time.

[0003] However, the electronic wristbands currently used in hospitals have significant shortcomings in terms of fixation and tamper-proofing. Common electronic wristbands mostly use simple clip-on or Velcro fastening methods. Clip-on fastenings may loosen or even pop open during frequent patient movements, such as turning over, getting up, or walking, due to limb extension and friction, causing the wristband to fall off. Velcro fastenings are also prone to weakening due to factors such as sweating and friction from clothing, making the wristband easy to remove or detach. For certain patient groups, such as those with mental illness, cognitive impairment, or those in a state of agitation, they may unconsciously or intentionally pull on the wristband in an attempt to remove it; the standard fastening methods of ordinary wristbands are ineffective in preventing this behavior.

[0004] Furthermore, while some wristbands feature simple tamper-proof structures, their security and reliability are inadequate. For example, some tamper-proof designs using one-time-use seals are easily torn open by patients, and once removed, they cannot promptly and accurately relay information to medical staff or the hospital management system. This could lead to incorrect patient identification, delayed treatment, or even serious medical accidents. Simultaneously, once the wristband is detached or removed, vital sign monitoring is interrupted, making it difficult for medical staff to detect changes in the patient's condition in a timely manner. Therefore, developing a locking device that effectively prevents the unauthorized removal of electronic wristbands from hospital patients has become a crucial issue urgently needing to be addressed in the medical field.
