More Information
- Time:
– When your patient stands on the APEX-SH or ICON, you are provided with height and weight readouts instantaneously. There is no height rod spoon to position on the top of the patient’s head and no keys to touch. - Accuracy:
– The sonar height rod provides accurate readings in 0.2-inch increments. Additionally, the icon® offers up to 1,000-lb capacity readings for bariatric weighing. - Hygiene:
– With the APEX-SH and ICON models, you do not need to touch a single key when measuring, simply stand on the platform and your readout appears within a second. Handsfree weight and height detection aids in infection control and limiting the spread of bacteria and microbes.
