Always ensure the sling is specifically designed for the hoist you are using. There are different types and sizes of slings available. Selecting the most suitable sling for your client will ensure safety and improve comfort during the transfer. You should consider:

• Client’s functional level, size, width and weight
• The type of transfer
• Sling shape matching body control e.g. U-shape or full-body support
• Any preferred position as the result of any medical condition e.g. stroke or amputation
  • Material type and any padding
  • Any sensitivity to pressure in any area

The main objective of the sling selection is to give the amount of body support that is needed. Invacare Slings are designed to give support in those areas where body control and muscle tone are reduced. The main body parts to assess are the legs, hip, trunk and head.

Selecting the right size

To select the correct sling size, the most important measurements are the hip width and back height in the sitting position. For slings with belts, the waist circumference is important, too.

The client’s weight needs to be considered mainly for the sling’s maximum safe working load. It’s important to indicate the right sling size. If no head support is needed, the correct back height is from the lower back until the shoulder/neck. With the need of head support the measurement needs to include the head, too.
