Detecto 6500 Portable Bariatric Wheelchair Scale

With built-in ramps for entering and exiting the scale, Detecto’s American-made 6500 portable scale is perfect for any wheelchair application.

You may key in the wheelchair weight, so that only the patient weight is displayed. A low-profile easily accessed platform measures 30 x 32 inch (76 x 81 cm flat portion). Powered by 6 C batteries (not included) or optional AC adapter.

The new MedVue Weight Indicator includes RS232 serial port, USB, or optional Ethernet output for data transfer to a printer or a PC-based EMR (electronic medical record) software program. With the new time/date feature, the scale can send the weight, time, date, BMI (Body Mass Index), and height directly to a printer or a PC. The ability to print or save weight data with the MedVue is a real time saving device for clinics, doctor's offices, long-term care facilities, and other medical institutions. For example, in long-term care facilities and nursing homes, the assessment of patients' weight is crucial to reimbursement from Medicare/Medicaid. Monitoring and documenting of weight is also important to renal departments, weight loss clinics, and other specialized departments.
