CAUTION!
Compatibility of slings and hanger bars / strap
hooks
Invacare® uses a "Loop and Coat Hanger Bar / Strap
Hook System" as do many other manufacturers.
Therefore other suitable patient transfer systems (slings),
manufactured by other companies, can be used on the
Invacare patient lift range as well.
However we do recommend:
– A risk assessment is always to be carried out by a
professional prior to issuing lifting equipment. It is
important that the Task, Individual, Load, Environment
and Equipment are considered in the risk assessment.
– Always choose the sling design and size according to
the patients weight, size and physical ability whilst
considering the type of transfer to be carried out.
– Do only use slings that are suitable for a "Loop and
Coat Hanger Bar / Strap Hook System".
– Do not use slings for "Keyhole Hanger Bar" or for
"Tilting Frame Hanger Bar" designs.
