Digital in-bed scales
In-bed patient weighing scales allow for fast and accurate patient weighing in acute, geriatric, coronary and surgical departments. The IB800 has a capacity of 800 lb/350 kgs. Features include EMR/EHR-ready RS232 serial connectivity, full-swivel ball bearing casters for easy transport, a hydraulic lift mechanism to ease lifting, AC or battery power and BMI calculation. The scale’s lock/release key holds the patient weight to allow clinical staff to attend to the patient first before recording the measurement. The tare key allows the weight of bedding to be subtracted from the patient’s weight for additional accuracy. The scales for bed-bound patients come with flame-retardant, anti-bacterial 6-ft/1.8-m long stretchers which are placed underneath the patient and hydraulically lifted a short distance from the bed for weighing. They are available with fixed and adjustable bases to fit through a variety of door width clearances.
