Some patients cannot stand or sit to be weighed, and moving them off a stretcher just to get a number adds risk and time. This platform scale is long and flat enough to take a stretcher or trolley straight on, so the weight is captured while the person stays lying down.
The pre-tare function stores the weight of up to three trolleys or aids, so staff select the right one and read the net patient weight at the touch of a button. That matters where weight drives drug dosing or fluid balance and the figure has to be right the first time.
Integrated handles and transport castors mean one person can move it between rooms and stand it out of the way when it is not in use. Readings can be sent directly to an electronic medical record or a printer.
