Comprehensive Health Monitoring: The 19 Key Metrics Checked by Our Health Kiosk
In today’s fast-paced world, regular health checkups have become a cornerstone of preventive healthcare. Our advanced health kiosk provides quick and accurate assessments of 19 key health parameters, offering a holistic overview of your general health. Each of these metrics gives valuable insights into your well-being and can help detect potential health issues early. Below, we explain these measurements and their importance.
1. SpO2 (Oxygen Saturation)
SpO2 refers to the percentage of oxygen in your blood. A healthy SpO2 level ranges from 95% to 100%. Monitoring oxygen saturation is essential for detecting respiratory issues, such as COPD, asthma, or COVID-19-related hypoxia.
2. Pulse (Heart Rate)
Your pulse measures the number of heartbeats per minute (bpm). A normal resting heart rate is between 60-100 bpm. Tracking your pulse helps assess cardiovascular fitness and detect irregular heart rhythms or stress levels.
3. Body Temperature
Body temperature is a fundamental vital sign, with a normal range of 97°F to 99°F. Abnormal readings can signal infections, fever, or other underlying conditions.
4. Height
While height may seem static, it plays a critical role in determining other health parameters like BMI and skeletal health. Tracking height regularly can also help detect bone-related issues, especially in older adults.
5. Body Weight
Body weight is a key indicator of overall health and nutritional status. Monitoring weight changes helps identify risks of obesity, malnutrition, or sudden weight loss associated with illnesses.
6. BMI (Body Mass Index)
BMI is calculated using your weight and height. It classifies individuals into categories like underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese. While BMI is a useful general measure, it doesn’t account for muscle mass or fat distribution.
7. BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate)
BMR indicates the number of calories your body requires to maintain basic functions like breathing and circulation at rest. Knowing your BMR helps tailor dietary plans for weight management and overall metabolic health.
8. Body Water
Body water refers to the total amount of water in your body, typically making up 50-70% of body weight. Proper hydration is crucial for maintaining bodily functions like temperature regulation and nutrient transport. Low body water levels can lead to dehydration and related complications.
9. Skeleton Mass
This metric measures the weight of your skeleton. It’s particularly important for assessing bone health and detecting issues like osteoporosis or reduced bone density in aging individuals.
10. Muscle Mass
Muscle mass indicates the total weight of muscle in your body. It’s a vital measure of physical strength, fitness, and metabolic health. Maintaining adequate muscle mass can help prevent injuries and chronic diseases.
11. Bone Mass
Bone mass measures the mineral content in your bones. Low bone mass is often a precursor to osteoporosis. Regular monitoring can help identify bone health issues early, allowing for timely intervention.
12. Protein Levels
Protein levels in the body contribute to muscle building, tissue repair, and enzyme function. Low protein levels can indicate malnutrition or muscle-wasting conditions, while excess protein may suggest dietary imbalances.
13. Metabolic Age
Metabolic age compares your body’s metabolism to the average metabolism of people in your chronological age group. A metabolic age higher than your actual age indicates a need for lifestyle adjustments to improve health.
14. Fat-Free Weight
Fat-free weight refers to your total body weight minus the fat mass, including bones, muscles, water, and organs. This measurement helps differentiate between fat loss and muscle loss during weight management programs.
15. Body Fat
Body fat percentage measures the proportion of fat in your body. Healthy ranges vary based on gender and age, but excessive body fat is a risk factor for obesity-related conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension.
16. Subcutaneous Fat
Subcutaneous fat is the fat stored beneath your skin. While essential in moderate amounts for insulation and energy, excessive subcutaneous fat can indicate poor dietary or exercise habits.
17. Visceral Fat
Visceral fat is the fat stored around internal organs. High levels of visceral fat increase the risk of serious health conditions like diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and fatty liver disease.
18. Physique
Physique analysis provides a comprehensive picture of your body composition, including muscle and fat distribution. It helps classify individuals into categories such as athletic, normal, or overweight, aiding in personalized health planning.
19. Subcutaneous Fat
This metric quantifies the fat layer stored directly under the skin. It helps understand how much fat contributes to overall body weight and signals potential risks for metabolic health.
