LowBackSling is easy for the caregiver to apply and it gives the patient a feeling of security. It features leg sections,
which means that the patient does not sit on the sling. Instead, the sling provides support from the tailbone up under the
arms and under the legs. LowBackSling is designed for use when the patient has upperbody control, etc.
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 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 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.
