1 .02 Purpose
As the sling is a disposable sling, it is suitable as a personal sling
and in situations where a high degree of hygiene is required and
for infection control program. The user’s name can be written
on the sling with the included pen. If necessary the sling can
be discarded every time it has been used – or when the user is
discharged.
The sling is suited for lifting or transferring a person with dis-
abilities in hospitals, at nursing homes, institutions and in private
homes.
The sling is designed for use with both mobile lifters and ceiling
hoist systems. It is ideal for lifting people to and from a seated
position and in certain situations to and from a half-seated position
in combination with a Guldmann head support.
The sling is designed for lifting persons with slightly reduced
muscular strength of upper part of the body and above hip joint
and thighbone, but with head control, in situations where the sling
should be put on and taken off easily or in situations where a large
opening is required such as access for toileting and hygiene.

cannot get trapped and that the sling does not catch on the bed,
wheelchair or other obstacles. The user’s head, arms, hands and
feet must not be in danger of becoming trapped. Be careful with
any tubes and wires that are attached to the user and/or equip-

with products that are not manufactured by Guldmann, a risk as-
sessment must be made by qualified staff.
