Liko™ HygieneSling • 7EN160166 Rev. 9
Pull the trousers up as far as
possible towards the crotch.
If an incontinence pad is to be used, fit it
in place before the trousers are pulled all
the way up. Make the transfer and lower
to the chair.
Apply HygieneSling according to the instructions
on page 7. Connect all of the loops. See page 5-6
for instructions on how to attach the sling loops
to different sling bars. Lift the patient.
If an incontinence pad is to be used, fit it in place
inside the crossed leg supports.
Pull the trousers right up over the seat
and sling while the patient is still sitting
in HygieneSling. Lower to the chair.
Disconnect the sling from the sling bar.
Carefully work the leg supports out of the
trousers and remove HygieneSling.
Return from Toilet to Wheelchair
Below, we describe two ways of dressing the patient after the visit to the toilet is concluded.
The most appropriate alternative depends on the patient’s physical condition and clothing.
Alternative 1:
Leg supports outside trousers. This is appropriate with non-stretch trousers.
Alternative 2:
Leg supports first – trousers outside. This method is suitable with stretch-fabric trousers.
Place the leg supports under the legs,
but outside the trousers. Connect all the
loops. See page 5-6 for instructions on
how to attach the sling loops to different
sling bars. Lift the patient.
