Loop Sling - Padded Legs, Without Head Support by Arjo

Selecting the most appropriate sling is important to ensure that it is suitable for the patient/resident, for the type of transfer required and compatible with the lift being used. The use of patient handling equipment such as mechanical lifts with the appropriate sling is a core component of a safe patient handling program.

This sling is intended for assisted transfer of passive patients/residents with limited ability to move and require full support during transfer, except for the head as this sling has a low-back design.

The sling is to be used with passive lifting devices to transfer patients in a seated/semi-reclined position to and from bed, chair, wheelchair or hygiene device during care activities. The low-back design makes the sling easy to apply and remove and allows the arms of the patient to remain outside of the sling. It can be used to stimulate the mobility of patients that can support the head themselves during transfer.
