Cardiology
Changes in body weight and body composition are determing factors in cardiology. Coronary heart diseases are often caused by being overweight or obese and the related risk of arteriosclerosis originates from elevated levels of cholesterol. The diagnoses of heart failure is increasing. Over the course of this disease, cardiac cachexia can occur and negatively impact the patient's prognosis. The medical measuring systems and scales from seca are essential to support the diagnosis and treatment.

The multi-faceted talent with network capability.
To prevent cardiac decompensation, healthcare professionals must weigh patients with heart failure, particularly those classified in NYHA Stages III and IV, every day. Long before the patient requires intervention, a steady weight gain indicates fluid overload. Diuretics counteract this effect by ridding the body of excess water.
Given the especially fine graduation of 50 g, the seca 704 high capacity column scale with wireless transmission reliably monitors therapy and transmits data automatically to a seca wireless printer or via the software seca emr flash 101 to an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system.
The seca column scale can weigh obese patients of up to 300 kg.
seca mBCA 515
Medical Body Composition Analyzer for determining body composition while standing
Product Details- Basic
- Advanced
- Premium
A body composition analyzer that delivers medically precise results.
With an analysis from the seca mBCA 515, a doctor is provided with information about body water and healthy cell mass and can assist in drawing conclusions about heart insufficiencies.
A pronounced increase in body water within a short amount of time is a potential warning sign of cardiac infarction. The medically precise measurement of body composition in fat mass and muscle mass can also establish the risk of coronary heart disease.
The analysis software seca analytics 115 aids clinicians to detect cachexia, which otherwise could not be recognised due to the presence of water retention.
