ClassicSling enables a comfortable and secure seated posture and gives the patient a feeling of security. It is designed to
be left in the chair after the transfer is completed, which means that the patient sits on the sling. ClassicSling is available
in two models, with or without commode opening. It provides support all the way from the hollow of the knees up to the
shoulders. ClassicSling is designed for use in most common lifting situations such as transfers from bed to wheelchair,
etc.
SystemRoMedic includes a wide range of functional, comfortable, high-quality slings that can be adapted for different
types of lifting and for patients with different needs. The slings are available in several different materials and in sizes from
XXS to XXL. All models are safe and very easy to use and are rated for lifting patients weighing up to 300 kg. The choice
of model and material depends on the patient’s needs and the transfer situation.
Visual and mechanical inspection
Check the condition and function of the sling regularly. Always inspect the product after laundering. Check to ensure that
seams and material are free from damage. Check to ensure that fabric is not worn or faded. Apply load to the device
and check to ensure that clasps, handles, etc. withstand heavy load. 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 unattended during a transfer situation.
To prevent discomfort and the risk of the patient sliding out of the sling, trial fit the sling carefully. First, apply the sling’s
back loops to the slingbar, and then apply the leg support loops. Use a slingbar that has been tested.
Note that there may be a risk of the patient tipping forward when a sling with standard (not separate) leg supports is
used.
The lowest allowable safe working load always determines the safe working load of the assembled system. Always
check the safe working loads for the lift and accessories before use. Contact your
dealer if you have any questions.
