Secure and comfortable
EvoSling Amputee MediumBack has a narrow leg support opening and a shoulder-height back. The sling’s leg supports are wrapped under the legs. The leg support straps are passed through the strap guide loop to keep the leg supports together. A small leg support opening minimizes the risk of the user slipping through the sling. A pocket in the lower back and on the leg supports facilitates application of the sling. The sling has a red seam in the middle of the back to help ensure that it is positioned symmetrically.
Anti-slip for added security
EvoSling Amputee is made of polyester net and has anti-slip material on the inside under the buttocks to provide added security during lifting. The user has a comfortable reclined sitting position. The leg supports are padded for optimum comfort.Designed primarily for 2-point sling bars, can also be used with 4-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.
