This sturdy, but lightweight, scale offers a wide range of versatility. It can be used with wheelchairs, straight-legged chairs or as a stand-on scale, and its sloped ramps offer versatility by allowing loading from either side. The 6550's vertical fold-up feature and heavy-duty wheels contribute to its ease of mobility and lack of needed storage space.
With the 6550, tare weight may be either preset or keyed in directly and the patient's weight is automatically displayed. The digital display makes it easy to view from wide angles. The large, easily accessed weighing platform and low angle ramps make the 6550 ideal for patient comfort and security.

Detecto 758C Indicator for Digital Medical Scales
Detecto digital medical scales come standard with the enhanced 758C weight display. The new 758C includes a standard serial port for data output to a printer or a PC-based EMR (electronic medical record) software program. With the new time/date feature, the scale can send the weight, time, date, BMI (Body Mass Index), and height directly to a printer or a PC. New black ABS plastic end caps have been added to the 758C further improving the overall appearance of each scale.
The ability to print or save weight data with the 758C is a real time saving device for clinics, doctor's offices, long-term care facilities, and other medical institutions. For example, in long-term care facilities and nursing homes, the assessment of patients' weight is crucial to reimbursement from Medicare/Medicaid. Monitoring and documenting of weight is also important to renal departments, weight loss clinics, and other specialized departments.
