Zebra's self-laminating LaserBand ® 2 Advanced direct print laser wristbands feature an advanced shape and design that makes assembly easy and allows the wristband to lie flat on the wrist to enable quick scanning, while providing superior patient comfort. Failure to correctly identify patients is one of the most serious risks to patient safety. Zebra's range of adult wristband solutions cover a wide range of requirements from those relating to patient comfort and reducing medical errors through to improving workflow and streamlining admissions processes. Adult wristbands need to cover a wide range of patients from young adults to the elderly and infirm. Zebra's LaserBand products are specifically designed with these patients in mind and include the following patented elements and key features;

• Self-laminating seal protects the wristband from water, hand sanitiser gels and other liquids, preserving patient data and giving longer wristband usability.
• Intuitive wristband design allows for quick and easy application to the patient's wrist.
• A wristband extender bar is included on each sheet to allow greater flexibility in identifying bariatric and oedema patients.
• Hole-punched sheets to fit securely into patient charts.
• Forms are all manufactured with adhesive-free zones around edges and holes to prevent printer jamming.
• Product materials are specifically chosen and tested for compatibility and superior performance in Laser and Inkjet printers worldwide.
• Wristbands include tamper-evident security slits to ensure wristbands cannot be removed and re-applied.
• Wristbands are available in white or red, with red wristbands typically being used as a visual alert to nursing staff, where a patient has a specific medical condition.
