Recommendation Nursing homes
Many patients in nursing homes are at risk of malnutrition and their muscle mass begins to decline as they age. Patients with impaired physical functions due to aging or surgery face a greater chance of falling which will increase the need for physical rehabilitation. To prevent malnutrition, patients must be weighed regularly. Hence the perfect solution is to use a seca scale or measuring system.

Safe weighing – even when standing is difficult.
Body weight is the key factor in determining a patient's nutritional status. The wireless multifunction scale seca 677 obtains this parameter precisely and reliably.
Safety is ensured by the handrail that weak and elderly nursing home residents can hold for stability while being weighed. There is no effect on the measurement no matter how heavily the patient leans on the handrail. Alternatively, the patient can be weighed in a wheelchair or a nurse can step onto the scale with the patient and then deduct his/her weight with the TARE function.
Although the scale is large, the foldable handrail and transport castors make it easy to store upright on its side. Standard equipment for the scale includes the seca 360° wireless module which transmits measurements to the software seca analytics 115 installed on a PC, to be documented and monitored over time.
