Molift RgoSling Amputee HighBack Padded (XXS – XXL)
The Molift RgoSling Amputee HighBack Padded is a specially designed lifting sling created to offer exceptional support, comfort, and safety for amputee users during hoisting and transfer situations. Engineered with Molift’s renowned ergonomic design principles, this sling provides a secure and comfortable solution for individuals requiring additional upper body support during transfers. It is suitable for a wide range of user sizes, from XXS to XXL, ensuring an accurate and supportive fit across various body types.
This high-back model delivers enhanced stability for patients who need extra support around the upper body, shoulders, and head. The sling’s padded construction not only improves comfort during use but also helps reduce pressure on sensitive areas, ensuring a more pleasant and dignified lifting experience. The thoughtful design prioritises both user comfort and caregiver efficiency, making it an essential tool for healthcare professionals managing complex patient mobility needs.
Enhanced Support for Amputee Users
The Molift RgoSling Amputee HighBack Padded has been developed specifically with amputee users in mind. The high-back profile provides vital trunk and head support, maintaining correct posture during lifting and reducing the risk of slippage. The sling’s unique design distributes weight evenly and allows for a natural, safe sitting position once the user is lifted. This makes it particularly suitable for patients with single or double lower-limb amputations, or those with reduced core stability who require additional balance assistance during transfers.
Comfort and Safety Combined
Comfort is a key focus in the design of this sling. The inner surface features soft, breathable materials that prevent heat build-up and skin irritation, even during extended use. Generous padding is applied in the key pressure zones to protect the user from discomfort while maintaining essential support. The secure harness and adjustable strap system allow caregivers to tailor the fit precisely, ensuring that each user is supported safely and comfortably according to their specific body shape and mobility requirements.
Ease of Use for Caregivers
Caregivers benefit from the Molift RgoSling’s intuitive design, which makes positioning and fitting straightforward and efficient. The clear labelling and colour-coded loops allow for quick identification of connection points, helping to ensure the correct lifting position every time. The sling is compatible with all Molift hoists and other leading hoist systems, offering versatility across different care environments. Its durable polyester and PE-cellfoam construction provides excellent longevity, even with frequent washing and daily use in busy healthcare settings.
Durable Construction and Easy Maintenance
Manufactured from high-quality materials, the RgoSling Amputee HighBack Padded is built to withstand the rigours of clinical environments. The polyester outer layer ensures durability and strength, while the inner padding retains its shape and comfort over time. It can be machine washed at 40°C for easy cleaning and hygiene maintenance. Careful stitching and reinforced attachment points provide added safety and reliability, ensuring the sling performs consistently under the recommended safe working load of 350 kg.
