Medical Scales
Medical scales are used to measure the weight of objects in medical institutions, hospitals, and other healthcare offices. Medical scales are highly accurate, providing accuracy within 0.5 pounds or less. The damping function of many medical scales ensures precise results by compensating for patient movement. Many models are portable and have wheels to facilitate movement.
Medical scales can also have features to accommodate patients, such as a fold-up chair for handicapped patients. Handrails and wheelchair scales are also possible medical scales. Medical scales often have high weight capacities and added features to guarantee patient safety. Available in a wide range of sizes, medical scales can fulfill many weighing needs in medical applications. Many medical-type scales are also available commercially for personal or industrial use.
