A physician scale is a precise weighing instrument used in medical settings to measure a patient's body weight and often height. It is a key tool for healthcare professionals to assess a patient’s overall health, monitor weight changes, and calculate important health indicators like Body Mass Index (BMI). These measurements are crucial for diagnosing conditions such as obesity, malnutrition, and for adjusting medication dosages. Physician scales are typically more accurate than standard home scales, offering reliable data for clinical evaluations.
Bathroom Scale
A bathroom scale is a household device used to measure a person's body weight, typically for personal health tracking. Its primary function is to provide individuals with regular updates on their weight, helping them monitor changes over time, which can be useful for weight management, fitness goals, or simply maintaining general awareness of one's health. Bathroom scales are usually more compact and less precise than professional medical scales but are convenient for everyday use.
