Choosing the right sling size is important in order to achieve the highest possible patient
comfort and safety.
An assessment of the patient capacity is required before using a stand-up lift and more
precisely to make sure that the patient can bear weight on at least one leg and has suffi-
cient tonicity in the lower and upper parts of the body.
Additional parameters should also be taken into account depending on the situation, such
as the patient’s physical handicap, pathology and morphology.
Our R&D department has put in place a size colour-code in order to quickly identify the
size of each sling:
In order to choose the right sling, the caregiver shall take into account the patient’s waist
size.
All our slings provide sustainable solutions for reassuring transfers and are compatible with
all stand-up lifts with a 2-hook system.
