Devices and methods for recording information on a subject's body

An inkjet injection device, comprising:

• at least one applicator array in fluid communication with one or more reservoirs;
• wherein at least one of the one or more reservoirs contains a vaccine, and wherein at least one of the one or more reservoirs contains an information mark microbead containing vaccination information corresponding to the vaccine;
• wherein the information mark microbead includes at least one of a magnetic, reflective, fluorescent, luminescent, radioactive, or acoustic scattering particle;
• at least one controllable output mechanism including circuitry and operably coupled to the one or more reservoirs and configured for administration of at least one information mark to a subject indicating receipt of one or more vaccinations;
• a receiver operably coupled to the at least one controllable output mechanism and configured to receive at least one information signal from the information mark of a subject;
• and
• a transmitter configured to transmit at least one information signal related to the information mark to or from an electronic registry.

A system, comprising:

• at least one therapeutic delivery device including a housing, and at least two reservoirs configured for containing one or more microbeads configured for administration to a subject;
• at least one computing device operably coupled to the therapeutic delivery device and including a receiver configured to receive at least one information signal from an information mark of a subject,
• wherein the information mark includes the one or more microbeads including at least one of a magnetic, reflective, fluorescent, luminescent, acoustic scattering, radioactive, or conductive material;
• an information reader configured for interpreting the information mark;
• and
• a transmitter configured to transmit at least one information signal to or from a database or other electronic registry;
• wherein the information mark includes at least one parcel of information relating to receipt of one or more vaccinations.

A needle-less device, comprising:

• a receiver configured to receive at least one information signal from an information mark of a subject,
• wherein the information mark indicates vaccination and contains vaccination information and includes a microbead including at least one of a magnetic, reflective, fluorescent, luminescent, acoustic scattering, radioactive, or conductive material;
• an information reader configured to interpret the information mark;
• and
• a transmitter configured to transmit at least one information signal to or from a database or other electronic registry;
• wherein the information mark includes at least one parcel of information relating to receipt of one or more vaccinations.

A system, comprising:

• a computing device operably coupled to an injection and reader device configured for administering a vaccine and information mark microbead to a subject in a temporal pattern, the information mark microbead containing at least two separate signals representing different parcels of information relating to the subject's medical history,
• the injection and reader device further including a receiver configured to receive at least one information signal from the information mark microbead of the subject or receive at least one information signal from an electronic registry;
• wherein the information mark microbead includes at least one of a magnetic, reflective, fluorescent, luminescent, radioactive, or acoustic scattering particle;
• a transmitter configured to transmit at least one information signal related to the information mark microbead to an electronic registry;
• and
• a comparator configured to compare at least two parcels of information from a subject's information mark microbead with each other, or compare at least one parcel of information from a subject's information mark microbead to at least one parcel of information in an electronic registry.
