Posted on: Friday, 22 February 2008, 18:00 CST

HIMSS Booth 2739 - Bar coded wristbands used in healthcare organizations are proven to reduce risk and increase safety. Precision Dynamics Corporation (PDC), the global leader in automatic wristband identification, showcases their series of innovative patient bar code wristbands and other Auto ID products for positive patient identification during the HIMSS (Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society) Conference, February 25 -28, 2008, Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. PDC will be located at HIMSS booth #2739 and, in addition, visitors can enter to win an iPOD Touch.

PDC's showcase of its bar code wristbands, labels and tags gives HIMSS attendees an up-close view of the bands used by today's top-ranked hospitals. Whether it's direct thermal, thermal transfer or laser printing, PDC's bar code products ensure crisp, clear, human readable text, compliant bar codes (linear and 2D) for easy scanability, photo ID and graphics for enhanced patient ID. These products also meet the requirements of JCAHO for positive patient ID, HIPAA for protection of patient privacy, and AHA to reduce risk of lost or transferred data. HIMSS 2008 attendees will also have the opportunity to see demonstrations of PDC's patented Smart Band(R) RFID Wristband System, which provides non-transferable patient identification which can help save lives and money through reduced medical errors.
