2.3 Description of function
Measuring weight/entering height
Measuring weight and height,
The seca scale is mainly used in hospitals, medical practices, outpatient and
inpatient health care facilities, and in medically oriented fitness facilities in
accordance with national regulations.
The seca scale is used for the conventional determination of weight and
establishment of the general state of nutrition; it assists the physician super-
vising treatment in making a diagnosis or deciding on a course of treatment.
To make an accurate diagnosis, however, the physician must order other
specific examinations and take their results into account, in addition to
determining a weight value.

The seca measuring rod is used in combination with a compatible seca scale
for the conventional determination of height (body size), and for early detec-
tion of growth disorders; it also assists the physician supervising treatment in
making a diagnosis or deciding on a course of treatment.

Weight calculation is carried out with four weighing cells. The measuring
results are shown on the multifunctional display. The height is entered
manually.
The Body Mass Index (BMI) or Body Surface Area (BSA) is automatically
calculated from the "Weight" and "Height" parameters.
