A weight scale is a piece of medical equipment used for measuring human weight. It is used in routine medical examinations, clinical tests and experiments as a “go to” equipment for patient evaluation (weights, BMI).

Scales can be mechanical or electronic and a few display options can be selected (single display, double display). Height measurement systems can be integrated to weight scales for automatic BMI calculation.

A Multiparameter patient monitor can provide several measurements on one single screen, displaying multiple vitals needed to assess the patient’s condition. This type of monitor, equipped with configurable alarms, is well suited for critical care.

Depending on the modules and accessories, readings such as Heart Rate, Non-Invasive Blood Pressure, ECG, SpO2, Temperature, Respiration, etc. can be displayed.

Syringe and/or Infusion pumps are electronic devices delivering medication solutions (drugs or nutrients) into the patient’s circulatory system.

Unlike a manual infusion performed by a nurse, Syringe or Infusion pumps can deliver medication with high precision, even at low flow rates. In addition, such devices are equipped with safety features, including automatic alarms for alerting the users in case of issue.

A Height Scale, also called Stadiometer, is a medical device used for measuring patient height. A horizontal headpiece slides on a vertical ruler and is placed on top of the patient’s head.

Height Scales are part of the common medical equipment used in routine examinations. Height measurement system can be integrated to weight scales for automatic BMI calculation.

Electrocardiograph devices can record and produce an electrocardiogram (ECG), showing the electrical activity of the heart (using electrodes placed on the patient’s skin).

ECG recorders integrate interpretation algorithms for automatic analysis and measurements of parameters such as PR, QT, corrected QT (QTc) intervals, PR axis, QRS axis, rhythm, etc.

ECG recordings can be directly printed and/or transmitted via Ethernet (LAN/Wi-Fi), Phone line, USB, etc.

Devices are ready to use upon arrival at the investigator site.

A Holter ECG monitor is a portable device used for continuous cardiac monitoring for one or more days. Long-term recording makes it possible to observe cardiac arrhythmias which could go unnoticed over a shorter period.

Most Holter ECGs  works along with an analysis/interpretation Software.

Laboratory centrifuges are motor driven equipment, which allow to spin liquid samples at high speeds in order to separate substances of higher or lower density, using the sedimentation principle.

A Sphygmomanometer or Blood Pressure Monitor, is a medical device used to measure blood pressure, consisting of a relatively small monitor linked to an inflatable cuff via a plastic tube.

Manual Sphygmomanometers require the physician to manually inflate the cuff using an inflation bulb and are usualy used in conjunction with a stethoscope.

Electronic monitors however, can automatically control the cuff pressure and integrate sensors, eliminating the need for a stethoscope.

Consisting of a small monitor linked to an inflatable cuff via a plastic tube, an ABPM is a portable device used for monitoring the patient’s blood pressure and heart rate at regular intervals. ABPMs permit the evaluation of cardiac risk factors. The devices can be used while patients are sleeping to  determine if a patient is a “dipper” or “non-dipper”.

ABPMs may also reduce the “White Coat Effect” where patients heart rates are elevated when in the presence of a doctor.
