Digital Weight Scale
Patient Application
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)
When a patient has congestive heart failure, a change in water retention of 2–3 pounds can be significant. Gaining a few pounds is the first warning that heart failure is worsening, thus knowing that information about your patients on a regular basis can save lives.
If left unchecked, rapid weight gain in a patient with congestive heart failure indicates that the patient’s body is retaining fluids, and you should call, prescribe a diuretic, increase a prescription, or bring them in for a visit.
Rapid Weight Loss
You may not know why your patient is losing weight so quickly, but you should take action as soon as possible – whether that means a phone call or an office visit.
The 100Plus Digital Weight Scale gives you, the practitioner, remote patient monitoring access to your patient’s weight between appointments, allowing you to track weight variations.
Obesity
Obesity affects 41% of Americans over the age of 60, and it can lead to heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and some types of cancer. What happens between visits — that is, regular weigh-ins — should be a part of your obese patients’ weight control plan.
The c-lynx Digital Weight Scale transmits the at-home weigh-in data directly to you, the practitioner, so you can track progress in obese patients and monitor weight changes over time.
