As the healthcare industry moves towards more precise and efficient medical services, Bewatec smart electric hospital beds are driving hospital intelligent management with innovative technology. Among their key features, the optional weighing function plays a crucial role in medication dosage calculation, weight monitoring, and nutritional management, providing medical staff with accurate and efficient support.
Precision Medication Dosage, Faster Emergency Treatment
For acute patients, every second counts. For instance, intravenous thrombolysis in stroke patients must be administered within 3.5 to 4 hours of onset, with the dosage based on the patient’s weight. The real-time weighing function of Bewatec’s smart hospital beds significantly reduces measurement time, optimizes treatment processes, and enhances efficiency. Additionally, in critical care scenarios, corticosteroid medications—used in cases such as severe infections, anaphylactic shock, status asthmaticus, lupus encephalopathy, and acute nephritis—require weight-based dosing. Accurate weight monitoring ensures precise medication administration, improving treatment effectiveness.
Weight Monitoring for Chronic Disease Management
Weight changes are critical indicators for many chronic and critical illness patients. The integrated weighing function in Bewatec smart hospital beds provides reliable data support in the management of heart failure, kidney disease, and critical care patients:
Heart Failure Patients: Daily weight monitoring helps detect fluid retention early, allowing doctors to adjust diuretic doses to prevent excessive cardiac load.
Kidney Disease Patients: In dialysis treatment, tracking dry weight ensures optimal fluid removal, preventing dehydration or fluid overload.
Critical Care Patients: Long-term bedridden patients may face challenges in regular weight measurement due to consciousness impairment, sedation, or medical tubing. The automated weighing function enables continuous monitoring, assisting doctors in dynamically adjusting treatment plans.
Nutritional Management for Improved Recovery
Among hospitalized critically ill patients, the malnutrition rate is 30% to 50%, while in cancer patients (e.g., gastric, colorectal, and pancreatic cancer), the rate can reach 70% to 80%. Weight loss is a key indicator of malnutrition and can significantly impact patient recovery. The real-time weight monitoring function of Bewatec smart beds provides precise data for doctors to implement personalized nutritional interventions, optimizing treatment outcomes and enhancing patient prognosis.
Reducing Nursing Workload & Promoting Intelligent Healthcare
The automated weighing function reduces the time-consuming manual measurement tasks for nurses, allowing them to focus more on patient monitoring and care. Additionally, hospitals can leverage this function to educate patients and families on the importance of weight management, raising public awareness about the connection between body weight and health. This supports nationwide weight management initiatives, contributing to comprehensive and in-depth public health advancements.
As the healthcare sector continues its journey towards intelligent and precision medicine, Bewatec remains committed to innovation, providing hospitals with cutting-edge smart medical devices to drive a new era of advanced and efficient healthcare solutions worldwide.
