Oh what fun! Anyway, it sounds like there could (should) be a large number of quite usable scales that become available in the next year or so. I think some would be gratefully received by charities etc who donate GOOD used equipment to hospitals etc. in countries that can't afford to be choosy whether the scales display in metric units only.
I quite understand the potential for confusion between certain metric and imperial values, but I really would hope that professional staff would take care to see that the display shows g/Kg and not Lbs/Oz etc. Still, it's OK, the NHS isn't trying to save money or anything
