Use of Medical Scales
Accurate weight measurement is of the utmost importance for patient care in various medical settings. NUWIEGH's medical scales are designed specifically for this purpose, offering the precision and reliability healthcare professionals require.
Key applications of medical scales:
- Patient Monitoring: Regular weight monitoring helps track a patient's health status and identify potential issues like malnutrition or fluid retention.
- Growth and Development Tracking: Precise weight measurement is important for monitoring healthy growth and development in infants and children.
- Dosage Calculations: Accurate weight is essential for calculating medication dosages, ensuring patients receive the correct amount of treatment.
- Pre and Post-operative Monitoring: Weight measurements before and after surgery help healthcare professionals track patient progress and recovery.
- Bariatric Care: NUWEIGH offers specialised bariatric scales that cater to the specific needs of heavier patients, helping lead to a safe and comfortable weighing experience.
Many of our models go beyond weight measurement, offering additional features such as:
- Height measurement: Combined weight and height data provide a more comprehensive picture of a patient's health.
- BMI calculation: Certain scales calculate Body Mass Index (BMI) for easy weight assessment relative to height.
- Connectivity with EMR systems: Data transfer to electronic medical records saves time and improves data accuracy.
By providing accurate and reliable measurements, NUWEIGH medical scales can help healthcare professionals deliver exceptional patient care without worrying about unreliable data and weighing equipment.

How often should medical scales be calibrated?
The recommended calibration frequency for medical scales depends on several factors, including:
- Frequency of use: Daily Scales require more frequent calibration than those used less often.
- Weight tolerance requirements: Higher precision scales may need calibration more often to maintain strict accuracy levels.
- Environmental factors: Exposure to extreme temperatures, vibrations, or dust can impact calibration.
As a general guideline, NUWEIGH recommends calibrating medical scales every six months to ensure optimal accuracy. This helps maintain reliable weight measurements, which are critical for effective patient care.
