You use digital weighing by stepping onto the scales, waiting for the weight to stabilize, and then stepping off. The weight is then typically recorded electronically.
Based on the provided transcript fragment, digital weighing involves the following steps:
- Step onto the scales: When ready, carefully step onto the digital weighing scales.
- Wait for Stabilization: Remain still on the scales until the weight reading stabilizes. This ensures an accurate measurement.
- Step off: Once the weight is stable, step off the scales.
- Data Transfer (Optional): In some systems (like the one described), the weight is automatically transferred to a patient account or other electronic record. This eliminates manual recording.
The specific features and capabilities may vary depending on the type of digital scale being used. Some scales might only display the weight, requiring manual recording, while others offer advanced features like data storage and connectivity.
