Typically, hospital scales are not designed to measure or support much more than 300 lbs. For larger patients, bariatric scales are essential to safely and accurately compute their weight. By first determining a patientâ™s weight, medical professionals can more accurately assess the patientâ™s health, as well as which equipment can safely handle the patientâ™s size.
At Universal Medical, we offer several styles of bariatric scales to best accommodate a variety of situations. While some students will be able to stand on a more conventional scale, others might need to be seated in a wheelchair or lie down in a reclined position. Prepare yourself for any of these scenarios with our high quality scales:- Portable bariatric scale powered by AA batteries with a carrying handle.
