IntroductionThe Kisses tag is part of the Kisses Mother/ Infant Matching compo-nent of the Hugs Infant Protection System. Kisses is designed to confi rm that the correct infant is matched with the correct mother each time they are brought together. The Kisses tag is given to a new mother after it has been bonded with the Hugs tag attached to her baby. The two tags remain bonded throughout the mother’s and infant’s stay in hospital, until the Hugs tag is discharged from the Hugs System.Note: The tag is not sterilized at the fac-tory. You may wish to clean the tag prior to fi rst use.Bonding the TagsThe Hugs tag and Kisses tag can be bonded any time during the one-hour period after the Hugs tag is attached to the infant. 1 Attach the Hugs tag to the infant.2 With no other Kisses tags in the area, bring the Kisses tag within 16 inches of the Hugs tag.3 The Hugs tag gives a bonding indica-tion within a few seconds: 2 short beeps, repeated once: success-ful bond persistent long beeps: the Hugs tag is seeing more than one Kisses tag no beep: battery problem4 If the bond is successful, attach the Kisses tag to the mother’s wrist using a standard hospital ID band.If the Tags Aren’t Bonding...Make sure that the tags are no more than 16 inches apart.Persistent long beeps: Check that there are no other Kisses tags within two feet. No beeps: Check the Xmark software for battery warnings. The Hugs tag will not bond with a low-battery Kisses tag. Try the bonding with a different Kisses tag.Matching the Tags“Matching” means confi rming that the right infant has been brought to the right mother. The Hugs tag provides a match or mismatch indication every time the infant is brought to its mother, when they have been apart for more than two minutes.1 Bring the Hugs tag and Kisses tag within 16 inches of each other.2 The Hugs tag gives a match/mismatch indication within two seconds: 2 short beeps, repeated once: correct match persistent long beeps: incorrect match no beep: possible mismatchIf There Is a Mismatch... Is there another mother with a Kisses tag within two feet? If yes, ask that mother to move away and try the match again. If you still get a mismatch, then the two tags do not belong to each other. Follow your hospital’s procedure for correcting a mismatch. If There Is No Match...Make sure that the tags are no more than 16 inches apart, and that there are no other Kisses tags within two feet. Check the Xmark software to confi rm that the Hugs tag bonded properly during attach-ment. If you still cannot get a match or mismatch indication, contact your System Administrator. Discharge and ReuseYou do not need to discharge the Kisses tag. It is automatically discharged from the system when the Hugs tag is discharged in the Xmark software. Return the tag for cleaning and reuse, following the “fi rst in, fi rst out” method so that tags are cycled regularly.Cleaning the TagThe Kisses tag can be cleaned using a soft-bristle brush and a disinfectant soap or simi-lar solution with no more than 20% alcohol content (for example, Butcher’s Heptagon Disinfectant Cleaner, or KleenAseptic from Metrex Research Corp.). Dry the tag thor-oughly before use. Notes: • Do not use an autoclave to clean the tag or serious damage may result.• Do not soak the tag in alcohol or alco-hol-based cleaners.Handling InformationBattery Handling - this device contains a lithium battery.
