Extra safety with the built-in waist belt

Narrow opening for increased safety
Molift RgoSling Amputee provides the additional support necessary for lifting and transferring users with impaired muscle tone or amputated limbs. The RgoSling Amputee has an anatomical cut and padding that provides exceptional support through the entire lift and transfer situation. The leg parts are divided and have extra length for application under both legs. Additional straps to prevent the legs from sliding out of position, therefore helping the confidence of the patient.
The sling is offered in two versions, HighBack for users with impaired head control and LowBack for users with stable head control.
RgoSling Amputee HighBack provides support for users with reduced trunk tone and head stability. The sling can be used for lifting to and from horizontal and sitting.
Designed primarily for 4-point sling bars, can also be used with 2-point sling bars.

The width of the sling bar
When assessing for the right size, measure the shoulder width of the user; the sling bar should have approximately the same length.
If the sling bar is too narrow the user might feel cramped and uncomfortable - and the respiration could be affected.
On the other hand, if the sling bar is much too wide there is a risk that the user is pushed forward in the sling because the head straps of the slings are being pulled outwards. This is especially important to think about when hoisting children and small adults.
Small Sling Bar, loop width, 13 3/8 inches
Medium Sling Bar, loop width, 17 3/8 inches
Large Sling Bar, loop width, 21 1/4 inches
