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. 

Medical Scales for Personal Use

PRIMARY-CATEGORY-IMAGES MEDICAL-AND-HEALTH PATIENT-AND-PERSONAL-SCALES untitled-design-60

 NUWEIGH offers a variety of medical scales suitable for medical professionals and personal use. Our scales are specially designed to be accurate and reliable, providing valuable weight data for individuals looking to track their health and wellness goals. 

While some NUWEIGH medical scales are specifically intended for clinical settings, we also offer a range of personal weighers that can be used for home use. These scales are easy to operate and provide clear weight measurements to help you monitor your progress over time.

Here is how NUWEIGH medical scales can be used for personal purposes

  • Weight management: Regular weight monitoring can be a helpful tool for maintaining a healthy weight or tracking progress during a weight loss program.
  • Body composition scales (select models): Certain NUWEIGH scales offer advanced features like body composition analysis, providing insights into muscle mass, fat percentage, and other health markers.
  • General health monitoring: Weight fluctuations can sometimes indicate underlying health concerns. Tracking your weight can help you identify patterns and prompt discussions with your doctor.

No matter your reason for monitoring your weight, NUWEIGH has a medical scale to meet your needs. Our commitment to precision and reliability ensures you receive accurate data to support your health journey.

 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.

Unsure if your NUWEIGH medical scale needs calibration? Our service team is here to assist! We possess the expertise to assess your specific circumstances and calibrate your medical scale.
