摘要

A wristband incorporating electronic storage media programmed with accessible and downloadable personal medical and identification information. The wristband has first and second ends which are detachably coupled. An electrical connector, electrically interconnected to the storage media, extends from the first end of the wristband. Prior to use, the wristband ends are decoupled, and the electrical connector is interconnected to an external device connection port of a computer. The user responds to pre-programmed queries, to store personal information and images in the storage media. The wristband is then installed on the wrist of the user, by coupling the first and second ends. When the personal information and images must be accessed, either for use or modification, the wristband is removed and the electrical connector is interconnected to the external device connection port of any computer. The personal information and images may then be reviewed, downloaded, or modified.
