SystemRoMedic

Max load: 300kg/660lbs

HygieneSling is easy to apply and facilitates dressing/undressing of the patient in connection with visits to the toilet. It

features leg sections, which means that the patient does not sit on the sling. Instead, the sling provides support from the

tailbone up over the head and under the legs. HygieneSling is designed for most lifting situations that involve dressing

and undressing of the patient. HygieneSling is available in three models: without belt, with belt and a model with a belt

and extra back support

SystemRoMedic includes a wide range of functional, comfortable, high-quality slings that can be adapted for different

types of lifting and for patients with different needs. The slings are available in several different materials and in sizes from

XXS to XXL. All models are safe and very easy to use and are rated for lifting patients weighing up to 300 kg. The choice

of model and material depends on the patient's needs and the transfer situation.

Visual and mechanical inspection

Check the condition and function of the sling regularly. Always inspect the product after laundering. Check to ensure that

seams and material are free from damage. Check to ensure that fabric is not worn or faded. Apply load to the device

and check to ensure that clasps, handles, etc. withstand heavy load. If there are signs of wear, the product must be

discarded.

Always read the manual

Always read the manuals for all assistive devices used during a transfer.

Keep the manual where it is accessible to users of the product.

Do not leave the patient unattended during a transfer situation.

To prevent discomfort and the risk of the patient sliding out of the sling, trial fit the sling carefully. First, apply the sling's

back loops to the slingbar, and then apply the leg support loops. Use a slingbar that has been tested.

The lowest allowable safe working load always determines the safe working load of the assembled system. Always

check the safe working loads for the lift and accessories before use. Contact your

dealer if you have any questions.
