Abstract
A linkage device that can be connected with other linkage devices and to itself, the linkage device comprising a strip having a first end and a second end, a closure hub attached to the first end of the strip and having an opening to receive a second end and a locking mechanism within the closure hub, a connecting surface protruding from the strip operable to secure the second end within a closure device, and a tampering detection device connected to the linkage device.
Claims20
A linkage system, said system comprising:
- (a) linkage device comprising a strip, a closure hub attached to a first end of said strip and having an opening to receive a second end of said strip and a locking mechanism within said closure hub to hold said second end so that said second end cannot be pulled out of said opening without user authorization, a connecting surface on said strip operable to secure said second end within said closure hub, an application distinct tag connected to said linkage device;
- a tampering detection device;
- and
- a detection device that is operable to perform at least one of reading information contained on said application distinct tag and determining whether said linkage device has been tampered with;
- and
- wherein said linkage device is X-ray and MRI compatible.
