Frequently asked questions
Does this scale connect to EMR systems?
Yes, the Health o meter 2650 Digital Wheelchair Scale is designed with connectivity features to support integration with Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems.
It offers two primary methods for data management and transfer:
- USB Connectivity: A standard USB port is included for reliable, wired interfacing with computers or clinical data systems.
- Optional Pelstar Wireless Technology: For maximum flexibility, specific scale configurations are available with optional Pelstar wireless technology for cable-free data transmission.
These connectivity options, combined with advanced functions like BMI calculation and data Hold/Release/Recall, streamline patient assessment documentation.
What is the maximum weight capacity?
The Health o meter 2650 is specifically engineered with a robust capacity suitable for busy clinical environments and accommodating bariatric patients. This allows for safe and convenient use with most wheelchairs.
- Maximum Capacity: The scale can support up to 1,000 lb (454 kg).
- Resolution: It provides highly accurate measurements with a resolution of 0.2 lb (0.1 kg).
This high performance is combined with a wide, low-profile platform (31.5” x 31.5”) and dual non-slip ramps, ensuring safe and comfortable patient access.
Does this scale calculate Body Mass Index (BMI)?
Yes, the Health o meter 2650 Digital Wheelchair Scale is equipped with a comprehensive feature set that includes Body Mass Index (BMI) calculation.
This function allows clinical staff to quickly assess a patient’s health status directly on the scale’s remote display. Other advanced weighing functions available include:
- Tare/Pre-Tare: Used for subtracting the weight of the wheelchair or other equipment.
- Hold/Release: To capture and maintain the patient’s weight reading.
- Everlock: Allows users to permanently lock the scale in either LB or KG mode.
- LB/KG Conversion/Lock Out: Easy conversion between units of measure.
Does the scale offer advanced clinical functions?
Yes, the Health o meter 2650 is equipped with numerous advanced clinical functions to streamline workflow, enhance accuracy, and ensure secure data management in busy clinical environments. Key features include:
- BMI Calculation: Automatically calculates the Body Mass Index for rapid patient assessment.
- Tare and Pre-Tare: Essential tools for accurately subtracting the weight of accessories (such as a wheelchair) to obtain the precise net weight of the patient.
- Data Management: Functions like Hold/Release, Reweigh, and Recall enable staff to stabilize measurements, verify weights, and review recorded data easily.
- Everlock Feature: This critical security option allows the scale to be permanently locked into either LB (pounds) or KG (kilograms) mode, preventing accidental unit switching and ensuring data standardization.
For digital record-keeping, the scale also supports connectivity via a standard USB port or through optional Pelstar wireless technology, facilitating easy transfer of data to EMR software or other compatible devices.
Is the scale foldable for easy storage?
Yes, despite its substantial size and robust 1,000 lb capacity, the Health o meter 2650 Digital Wheelchair Scale is designed to fold for easier storage when not in use. This feature is especially beneficial for high-traffic clinical settings or those with limited space, helping you to:
- Minimize the overall footprint of the scale (which features a large 31.5” x 31.5” platform).
- Maximize floor space and improve workflow efficiency.
Can the measurement unit be locked?
Yes, the Health o meter 2650 scale features the Everlock option, which allows you to permanently lock the displayed unit of measure to either pounds (LB) or kilograms (KG).
This function (also known as the LB/KG Lock Out feature) is designed for security and operational standardization, preventing unintended changes in the clinical setting.
What are the spacious platform dimensions?
Yes, the Health o meter 2650 features a generously sized, low-profile platform designed specifically to accommodate wheelchairs and bariatric patients safely and comfortably.
Key details regarding the platform and accessibility:
- Platform Dimensions: The square weighing surface measures 31.5 inches x 31.5 inches (800 mm x 800 mm).
- Low-Profile Design: The platform stands only 2 inches (51 mm) high, which optimizes accessibility.
- Dual Ramps: Accessibility is further enhanced by non-slip dual ramps on both sides, ensuring smooth and secure roll-on and roll-off access.
- Capacity: The robust platform supports a high capacity of 1,000 lb (454 kg).
What are the dual ramp dimensions?
The Health o meter 2650 utilizes dual, non-slip metal ramps that ensure safe and easy ingress and egress for wheelchairs and bariatric patients onto the low-profile platform.
The dimensions for each individual ramp are:
- 10 inches x 31.25 inches
Does the remote display feature high-contrast color?
Yes, the Health o meter 2650 features a clear, remote display with a 1.5” (38 mm) High-Contrast Color TFT-LCD Screen.
Since the display head is remote, it offers flexible placement, allowing it to be conveniently mounted on a wall or set on a table.
Do the non-slip dual ramps ensure safe wheelchair access?
Yes, the Health o meter 2650 scale is specifically designed for safe and easy patient transfer in clinical environments.
Key features that ensure superior accessibility and safety include:
- Dual Non-Slip Ramps: Facilitate secure roll-on and roll-off access, eliminating the need for complex maneuvering.
- Low, Wide Platform: The low-profile, generously sized platform measures 31.5” x 31.5”, comfortably accommodating standard and bariatric wheelchairs.
- High Capacity: The scale supports a high maximum capacity of 1,000 lb (454 kg), suitable for bariatric weighing.
