Detecto's in-bed medical scales use a hydraulic system to lift the featured stretcher inches above the bed, making this weighing process not just feasible, but efficient and convenient for healthcare professionals and comfortable for patients. The thin fabric of the stretcher is easily slid underneath the patient to be lifted, and the sturdy steel construction of the device ensures no accidents will occur while the patient is being weighed. Locking casters and an adjustable weighing arm further enhance safety precautions for the patient, as does the IB800's ability to widen its base stance, maximizing stability for the scale.
Controlling the scale is very intuitive, providing care providers a hassle-free experience that doesn't take all of their valuable time. With a weight capacity of 800 pounds, the scale can accommodate all patients under a wide variety of conditions, granting maximum flexibility to healthcare facilities. The indicator displays weight readings within a 0.2-pound margin of error in easily legible LCD digits, and professionals can use the simple tare system to remove extra weight from the reading, enabling an expedited weighing process that allows care providers to focus on the needs of the patient.
The size of the scale allows it to fit through standard doorways. The device can connect with EHR/EMR systems through the RS232 serial port.
The Patient Lift Scale's stretcher is made from flame-retardant antibacterial fabric.
Never use this scale for patient transport or transferring.
