Definition and use of BMI (Body Mass Index)

The Body Mass Index is the ratio between height and weight squared. The BMI is meanwhile

accepted world wide – also by WHO (World Health Organization) - helping to evaluate the state of

nutrition and with that also the state of health of a person. The result is a tolerance value.

First take weight of the empty wheelchair and set result under tare (see Tare function).

Press the HOLD/BMI key for at least 3 seconds.

By doing that you selected the storage mode for the height in cm. You will also find the word

`HIGHT´ on the display.

Once entered the mode you find a given value that you will probably have to change.

The first digit (normally a 1) is blinking. Change indication if necessary by pressing the

UNIT/HEIGHT key by using the numeric key stored (0-9).

Press the HOLD/BMI key again and you will get to the next digit.

Repeat the procedure until the exact height is shown on the display.

Press TARE key for confirmation and you will get back into the normal weighing mode.

The patient may now roll on the platform sitting in the wheelchair.

Press again HOLD/BMI key to enter the BMI mode.

The blinking display offers you both – weight and BMI.

To deactivate the BMI mode press again HOLD/BMI key.

Evaluation of the Body Mass Index

BMI below 18

•

The patient is not showing enough weight. Control nutrition to put on weight.

BMI between 18 and 20

•

The patient is slightly under weighed. If he feels well there is no need for a change.

BMI between 20 and 25

•

The patient is in the range of normal weight.

BMI between 25 and 30

•

The patient is slightly overweighed. A reduction of weight is indicated or, is necessary if the

state of health is already affected (e.g. diabetes, high end blood pressure, heart diseases).

BMI over 30

•

Reduction of weight is imperative. Also to visit a doctor is highly recommended.

HOLD function

By using the HOLD function the identified weight might be stored and is shown on the display even if

the patient left the scale already. The advantage is to take care of the patient first and then take note

of the weight.

Press HOLD/BMI key while scale is under load.

The display shows a blinking arrow symbol next to the HOLD symbol.

Once the scale is loaded with more than 3 kg the blinking stops.

The weight displayed will now also show after unloading of the platform.

To deactivate the Hold function press again HOLD/BMI key.

If you are in Hold mode you might also change over to the Tare function by pressing the

TARE key. which means both functions might be used simultaneously.
