The Baseline Volumetric Edema Gauges offer a quick and easy way for medical professionals to measure the exact amount of swelling in a specific body part. Edema can be difficult to measure accurately due to the irregular shape of the human body, but water displacement provides a method that is both precise and easy, no measuring tapes necessary. This versatile and convenient line of edema gauges measures the amount of space that an object takes up in three dimensions, with a range of models that accommodate a wide variety of body parts.
In order to measure the amount of swelling present in a limb or body part, simply place the limb in the full and calibrated gauge container. The amount of liquid that is displaced will be redirected into a secondary container where it can be clearly measured. The amount of liquid displaced provides a precise measurement of the limb™s volume, allowing highly accurate tracking of swelling without having to measure multiple points on the limb.
