Liko UniversalSling • 7EN160174-04
Definitions
Lifting from the sitting position
Place the sling behind the patient’s back with the product
label outwards. Fold up the lower edge of the sling
around your finger tips to facilitate guiding the sling into
place.
Using the palm of your hand, push the lower edge of
the sling down to the level of the patient’s coccyx -
this
is very important. Tip:
Correct positioning is facilitated
if the patient leans/is leaned forward slightly.
Pull the sling’s leg supports forward along the outside
of the patient’s thighs. Place the palm of your hand
between the patient’s body and the sling and push
the leg support’s lower edge down towards the seat.
Simultaneously, pull the leg support forward with the
other hand to stretch it.
Pull the leg supports forward to smooth out any
creases in the back. Check that both leg supports
protrude the same distance.
Tip:
A gentle hold under the knee-cap makes it easier
to pull the leg supports forward.
