Product Description

With the re-usable Lasso-o, sold in packs of 10, the health professional can measure any circumference to the nearest millimeter. It is manufactured from paper-thin, non-stretch, non-shrink plastic ‘synteape’. It is most often used to measure head circumferences, where measuring with either material (sewing) tape or paper tape is inappropriate.

Because of their accuracy and ease of use, Lasso-os are now being used for research as well as clinical purposes: the recent MAFF and Department of Health National Diet and Nutrition Survey used the tape for taking both head and mid upper-arm circumference measurements (MUAC).
