EasyGlide, 85 x 39 cm, is used for horizontal transfers between bed and x-ray table/operating table/ gurney/shower
trolley. For the sake of safety, both underlying surfaces should be firm when transferring between bed and gurney.
EasyGlide can also be used to assist placement of a sling in both the recumbent and seated positions.
SystemRoMedic is a series of different models of transfer assistive devices. The choice of assistive devices depends on
the transfer situation and the patient’s functional capability and needs.
Visual inspection
Check the condition and function of the assistive device
regularly. Check to ensure that fabric is not worn or faded.
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 un-
attended during a transfer situation.
Functional inspection
Always read the manual
Carefully bend the EasyGlide to
check strength and durability. The
board should be both elastic and
rigid. Discard the EasyGlide when
its strength and durability are dimin-
ished.
Safety
For the sake of safety, both under-
lying surfaces should be firm when
transferring between bed and gurney.
Max. weight of 135 kg applies for a
distance of max. 5 cm.
The EasyGlide is placed under the hips and shoulders.
The patient is turned on one side. A draw sheet can be
used to facilitate the transfer. Guide the EasyGlide in under
the patient, between the bed sheet and the draw sheet.
Press the EasyGlide down into the mattress somewhat and
push in.
Ensure that the weight of the hips and shoulders is centred
on the EasyGlide.
NOTE! If two or more transfer slides are used, take care to
ensure that the skin is not pinched between the transfer
slides.
Transfer on transfer slides.
Place the transfer slide between the two underlying surfaces.
By using a draw sheet, the caregiver’s reach is extended,
allowing a better working stance.
Make sure the transfer slides are between the two underly-
ing surfaces and that the gap between the beds does not
exceed 5 cm. Lean the patient towards the transfer slides
and pull the draw sheet to transfer the patient.
Transfer from bed to bed
The transfer slides are removed by grasping the
handles and drawing outward. Prevent the patient’s
body from moving by holding the patient as the slides
are pulled out.
