Instructions for use for MiniLift
1.
Before using the MiniLift, always plan and asses the risk before a lift
and transfer:
a. Check that the environment is suitable and plan for the task
b. Check the MiniLift and ThoraxSling function
c. Check the MiniLift battery
d. Check that the MiniLift has been serviced
e. Visually inspect the MiniLift and ThoraxSling for signs of damage
or defects
f. Ensure sizing of the ThoraxSling is correct in accordance with IFU
2.
Requirements for use:
a. The client must have some standing capability to use the MiniLift –
this is dependent on the individual risk assessment.
Fitting the ThoraxSling
3.
Fit the ThoraxSling to the client according to the ThoraxSling instructions –
see IFU for ThoraxSling.
4.
The strap around the midriff should be no more than 10cm apart or
overlapping – if they are, consider a bigger or smaller size.
5.
Buckle the safety belt. Do a risk assessment if the belt needs to be
buttoned, if case the client uses a stomia bag, PEG, has wounds or
similar. Raising a client with the MiniLift will work well even without
buckling the safety belt.
Introducing the MiniLift
6.
If needed, to get closer to the wheelchair, lift the client's feet from the
wheelchair to foot support and turn these away.
7.
Spread the legs of the MiniLift as wide as necessary and position the
MiniLift in front of the client, facing the client.
8.
When the MiniLift is correctly positioned in front of the client, lock the
wheels of the MiniLift and of the wheelchair/bed if applicable.
9.
Ensure that the client's feet have contact with the footplate and position
the client's feet appropriately on the footplate of the MiniLift, to ensure
maximum balance.
10. Adjust the leg support height and depth position so that the client's shins
are supported.
11. Lift the locking handle on the lift arm and set the lift arm so that the patient
can reach it comfortably with bent arms.
12. Attach suitable loops of the ThoraxSling on the hooks on the lift arm.
13. Pull the trombone arm back and lock the handle on the lift arm so that the
loops of the sling are under tension and are not slacking.
