General Medicine

The main challenge in general medicine is the unpredictable clinical scenarios. For example, a doctor may have to treat overweight patients with pre-diabetes and high blood pressure which puts the patients at risk of developing arteriosclerosis. In addition, patients with deficiency symptoms are examined because they have an increased susceptibility to infection and chronic inflammations. The patient population may also include persons of normal weight, who might have lost muscle mass and lowered their basal metabolic rate due to poor nutrition. When conducting routine examinations of obese or underweight patients, some doctors may find it difficult to discuss their weight. seca products support doctors with precise BMI measurements and qualified weight consultation.
