Silhouette Sling

Product Description
The Human Care Silhouette Sling 25015 and 25020 are models with neck support, which are specially designed for moving
people to and from narrow wheelchairs and moulded seats, for example. The slings have no handles or reinforcements which
could cause pressure sores. This means that it is possible to leave the sling in the chair. The 25015 sling is also ideal for use
when a patient is bathing or showering.
The Silhouette Sling 25015 is made from low-friction polyester net. The advantage of this material is that the sling is easy to fit
and dries quickly after washing or after the patient has taken a bath.
The Silhouette Sling 25020 is made from high-friction, cotton-like polyester, Trevira. The advantage of this material is that there
is less risk of the patient slipping out of the sling. As a result of the friction, the sling moves relatively little in relation to the
patient and to the chair. The 25015 and 25020 slings are designed for two-, three- and four-point suspension.

Intended use
Lifting the patient from a lying position
1. Lay the patient on his/her side. Position
the sling so that the centre of the sling
lines up with the patient's spine. Take
note of the marking on the sling (outside
up). The bottom part of the sling must be
directly under the patient's coccyx. Roll
the patient over onto his/her other side
and pull the sling through. Lay the patient
on his/her back. If the bed is height-
adjustable, it is a good idea to raise the
head of the bed so that the patient is in a
semi-sitting position.
2. Pull the leg sections through between the
patient's legs. Lower the lift to the height
of the patient's stomach. If required, you
can thread the left leg section through the
loop on the outside of the right leg section.
Attach the leg section lifting straps to the
leg hooks on the lift. Turn the lift around,
attach the back section lifting straps to the
lift. Hold the lift away from the patient's
face with one hand as you raise it.
Alternative: The sling can also be used for
two- or four-point suspension. In this case
the loop on the right leg section is not used
and the leg sections are crossed.

3. Attach the neck support lifting straps
to the lift bar. Pause in this position
and check that all the lifting straps are
securely attached to the hooks.
4. Continue lifting the patient. It may be
necessary to lower the bed slightly. Raise
the patient's legs slightly while turning
him/her away from the bed. It is a good
idea to put your arm around the patient
while you are moving him/her to create a
greater sense of security.
