Single-use measuring tapes solve a small problem that comes up every day in paediatric practice: the tape that has been handled by everyone. The seca 218 gives each baby a clean paper tape, used once and discarded, with a wall dispenser that keeps the next one within reach.
The tape is printed clearly for length and head circumference work, and there is room to write the name, height, weight and date straight onto it. That makes it easy to hand the reading over or file it without transcribing twice.
The dispenser mounts on the wall, takes up almost no room and refills without tools, so it works well in small consulting rooms, maternal and child health clinics and hospital paediatric wards.
