Obesity is the fastest growing health problem in the world. This battery-operated digital scale has been especially developed for weighing obese patients, with a weighing range of up to 800 lbs and a non-slip 22 x 22 inch platform, only 2.2 inch high – a sturdy base for overweight or obese patients. A chair may also be used on the scale and will not influence the weighing result due to the pre-TARE function. The cable remote display (cable length: 98.4 inch) with easy-to-read LCD can be held, wall mounted or placed on a table. The 0.2 lbs graduation means that the smallest changes in weight are registered, even after the patient has left the scale – thanks to the auto-HOLD function. The integrated Body Mass Index (BMI) function also emphasises the many uses of this unique multifunctional scale.
