Operation - Seca 210 Bedienungsanleitung

Congratulations!
In the seca 210 measuring mat you have
acquired an accurate and at the same time
sturdy piece of equipment for measuring the
length of babies.
The seca 210 measuring mat is designed for
use in paediatric practices, paediatric
hospitals or for home visits by midwives and
paediatricians.
The measuring mat can be rolled up and so
requires only a little space. There are also
holes in the head stop on the mat to enable it
to be hung on a wall.
Safety
Before using the new measuring mat, please
take a little time to read the following safety
instructions.
Follow the operating instructions.
Never leave a baby lying on the measuring
mat unsupervised.
Only measure length on surfaces from
which the baby cannot fall.
Ensure that the measuring mat is cleaned
and disinfected regularly to avoid
infectious diseases being passed on.
Ideally, a second person is required to
measure length exactly.

Operation

Measurement method:
1. Lie the baby on the measuring mat. The
baby's head must lie against the head
stop (1) of the measuring mat.
2. Using your right hand, push the foot stop
(2) in the direction of the baby's feet. The
left hand holds the baby in position.
3. Stretch the baby's legs by pressing its
knees carefully and gently down to the mat
with the left hand.
4. With your right hand, rest the foot stop (2)
at right-angles to the soles of the baby's
feet.
5. Read off body length at the marking on the
measuring mat (3).
If the above steps are followed, accuracy
greater than +/- 5 mm is achieved.
