Harpenden Neonatometer
Holtain Model 701 Price: $2,249
Infant precision measurement tool, handcrafted by Holtain in Wales.
Product Details
The Harpenden Neonatometer is expertly crafted to measure the length of an infant to the nearest millimeter; it is specifically designed to be used without the infant having to be lifted from the surface on which they are lying.
The ball-bearing mounted carriage has an extremely free movement, and is operated via a constant pressure lever which automatically locks the carriage at the correct measuring point. This mechanism ensures reproducibility of measurement and effectively eliminates variation due to differing operator techniques.
