A battery-powered device designed for weighing elderly and/or weak patients, patients with a disability, or patients undergoing a specific treatment (e.g., dialysis) who are unable to use a conventional floor scale. It is the form of a chair in which the patient sits and their weight subsequently measured and displayed. It is primarily used for routine patient weight checks, but is also used to continuously and accurately monitor body fluid gain and loss in dialysis patients. It is designed to provide accurate patient weight measurements regardless of patient position in the chair seat.
