Technological advancements in patient scales intended to improve the comfort, safety, and overall well-being of individuals suffering with chronic diseases. Modern patient scales are providing additional insights into body composition. These scales are employing unique techniques comprising bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to estimate body fat percentage, muscle mass, water content, bone density, etc. This data is highly useful for assessing variations in body composition over time. Smart scales can sync data with smartphones, tablets, or other devices through Bluetooth or Wi-Fi.
Some smart scales can even integrate with fitness equipment and health apps, providing a comprehensive view of an individual's health and progress. Novel patient scales are transmitting data to electronic medical records (EMRs) or cloud-based platforms remotely. This facilitates remote patient monitoring and reducing the need for frequent clinic visits. Moreover, patient scales have become more user-friendly, with features such as large, easy-to-use interfaces, and intuitive controls.
