Frequently asked questions
What features make the MCD 300K-1 chair scale an ideal choice for geriatrics and the paramedical sector?
The MCD 300K-1 chair scale is specially designed to meet the needs of geriatrics and the paramedical sector thanks to several key features: its high capacity of 300 kg makes it suitable for obesity measurements, while its mobile design with four swivel wheels and locking brakes facilitates movement and ensures safety. The ergonomic seating and fold-down armrests and footrest provide increased comfort and support for patients, including those with dementia, thanks to contrasting colours for improved visibility.
How does the Hold function improve the weighing experience with the MCD 300K-1, especially for restless patients?
The Hold function of the MCD 300K-1 is designed for situations where it is difficult to obtain a stable measurement due to patient movement. It calculates an average weight value and "freezes" it, allowing care staff to focus on the patient without rushing to read the value. This feature is particularly useful for restless patients or those having difficulty remaining still, ensuring accurate measurements and reducing stress for both patient and caregiver.
How do the wheels and handles of the MCD 300K-1 contribute to its mobility and ease of use?
The wheels and handles of the MCD 300K-1 play a crucial role in its mobility and ease of use. The four swivel wheels allow the chair scale to be moved easily in various environments, including on uneven surfaces such as doorways or kerbs. The rear wheels equipped with locking brakes ensure patient safety during weighing. The ergonomic handles facilitate the handling of the chair scale by care staff, allowing optimal positioning for weighing and convenient storage.
