Symptom: Patient is complaining of groin or harness discomfort.
1. Possible Cause: Resolution:
The harness wrap and/or the groin piece are
not tight enough. The harness and groin piece should be securely tightened from the start.* The
harness wrap should be tight enough to grab on to the fatty tissue around the
abdomen. The groin piece should then be tightened securely to keep the harness
from riding up on the patient and creating unwanted pressure in the groin area. A
towel or a piece of foam can be wrapped around the patient’s abdomen for added
padding if needed.
Symptom: Harness is riding up on the patient causing pressure in the groin piece area
1. Possible Cause: Resolution:
Groin piece has slack, harness rides up making
groin straps the only source of support The bottom two straps on the harness wrap must be tightened securely, the top
one only if it rests below the rib cage. Applying the harness and groin piece loosely
will cause them to slide upward.*
Symptom: Frontal overhead straps are causing discomfort in the chest area of female patients.
1. Possible Cause: Resolution:
The distance between the overhead straps
places load on breasts. Use an extender to increase the front panel size and distance between the
overhead straps possibly avoiding the chest tissue. Conversely, the harness wrap
placed on the patient with opening in the back results in overhead straps getting
closer to each other in the front.
Troubleshooting - Harness
Symptom: The overhead straps slip off of patients shoulders
1. Possible Cause: Resolution:
The overhead straps are too far apart. Place the harness wrap with the opening in the back. This will bring the overhead
straps closer to each other.
Symptom: The patient cannot stand to properly position and tighten the harness and groin piece.
1. Possible Cause: Resolution:
Patient is too weak or unsafe to stand Apply the harness in supine position. Avoid harness application in sitting as it
reinforces flexed hip position.
