Liko Ultra LiftPants Mod. 920
Sling
Instructions for Use
Lifting very heavy patients requires special techniques and
specially designed lift equipment. Liko has developed the
Ultra product series to help lift such patients in a safe and
comfortable manner.
Intended Use
The Liko Ultra LiftPants sling, when used in accordance with
the information for use, gives very heavy patients the chance
to practice standing and gait training without the risk of
falling. It also can reduce the risk of injuries to caregivers.
The Liko Ultra LiftPants are intended for use in the following
environments: Health care, Intensive care, Emergency
ward, Rehabilitation, Habilitation and Home healthcare
environment.
The Liko Ultra LiftPants sling aids in safe standing and gait
training for patients with poor balance and poor leg function.
It is essential that the patient is able to bear weight on their
legs. The Liko Ultra LiftPants allow the patient to move while
relieving them of a greater or lesser degree of body weight.
Sizes
The Liko Ultra LiftPants sling is equipped with two hip straps
on either side for more even weight distribution. There are
two different sizes.
In this document, the person being lifted is referred to as the patient and the person helping is referred to as the caregiver.
IMPORTANT!
Lifting and transferring a patient always involves a certain level of risk. Read the instructions for use for both the patient
lift and lifting accessories before use. It is important to completely understand the contents of the instructions for use.
The equipment should only be used by a trained caregiver. To be trained, a caregiver needs to read and understand the
Instructions for Use. Ensure that the lifting accessories are suitable for the lift used. Exercise care and caution during use.
As a caregiver, you are always responsible for the patient's safety. You must be aware of the patient's ability to make it
through the lifting situation. If something is unclear, contact the manufacturer or supplier.
