2 Objectives Participants will be able to: Differentiate categories of lift and transfer equipment based on functional abilities i of its user. Identify the differences among slings available for lifts. List the steps involved for correct sling application i and use. List major safety factors involved in the operation of List major safety factors involved in the operation of lifting equipment.
3 Agenda Definition of a lift, transfer and reposition Goal of Safe Client Handling Assessment Holistic Perspective Algorithm from U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Safe Client Handling Equipment Lifts Slings Transfer and Repositioning Aids
4 Definitions Lift Supporting the entire weight of the client while moving from one surface to another. Transfer A collaborative effort between caregiver and client while moving from one surface to another. Reposition Changing the position of the client on the same surface.
5 Goal of Safe Client Handling To utilize the safest method for both the caregiver and client, but also allow the client to be as independent d and participate ii as much as they are able.
6 Assessment Holistic Perspective (Canadian Model of Occupational Performance and Engagement) Person Cognitive, affective, physical and spiritual Occupation Slf Self care, leisure and productivity i Environment Physical, institutional, cultural l and social il (Polatajko, Townsend & Craik, 2007).
7 Assessment: One more thing Also consider Caregiver/Healthcare Provider Height, weight, strength, knowledge/training, etc.
8 Assessment Algorithms Assessment Criteria and Care Plan for Safe Patient Handling and Movement Developed by the US Department of Veterans Affairs VA Sunshine Healthcare Network / i / f andling/ Algorithms for various types of transfers and clients such as bariatric and orthopaedic conditions. (NIOSH, 2009; US Department of Veterans Affairs, 2011).
9 Assessment talgorithms Asks questions about The Client s: 1) Level of assistance (independent, partial, dependent) 2) Weight bearing status (none/partially/fully) 3) Cooperative/Comprehension (Yes/no) 4) Bilateral upper extremity strength (Yes/no) 5) Weight and height (BMI) (NIOSH, 2009; US Department of Veterans Affairs, 2011).
10 Assessment Algorithm Physical components of the client Check applicable conditions that may affect handling techniques used Hip/Knee/Shoulder Wounds affecting Severe Replacements transfer/positioning Osteoporosis/low bone density History of Falls Amputation Severe Pain/Discomfort Paralysis/Paresis Urinary/Fecal stoma Postural Hypotension Unstable Spine Contractures/Spasms Splints/Traction Severe Edema Tubes (IV, Chest, etc.) Respiratory/Cardiac Compromise Very Fragile Skin Fractures (NIOSH, 2009; US Department of Veterans Affairs, 2011).
11 Assessment Algorithms Algorithm 1: Transfer to and From: Bed to Chair, Chair to Toilet, Chair to Chair, or Car to Chair Algorithm 2: Lateral Transfer To and From: Bed to Stretcher, Trolley Algorithm 3: Transfer To and From: Chair to Stretcher or Chair to Exam Table Algorithm 4: Reposition in Bed: Side to Side, Up in Bed Algorithm 5: Reposition in Chair: Wheelchair and Dependency Chair Algorithm 6: Transfer a Patient Up From the Floor (NIOSH, 2009; US Department of Veterans Affairs, 2011).
12 Algorithm 1 Transfer to and from: Bed to Chair, Chair to Toilet, Chair to Chair, or Car to Chair (U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, 2011).

27 General Sling Overview Sling Options Various types Mesh, Canvas, Quilted, Padded Head support, no head support Waist bands (Velcro or buckle) Disposable and Re usable/washable etc.
28 Sling Types Hammock ( split leg ) Long seat ( full sling ) Horseshoe Style (e.g. Quick Fit/Combi/Universal) Hygiene/Toileting Positioning Roller bands/limb Standing/walking
29 Hammock ksling Client Criteria: i) Unable to weight bear ii) Uncooperative/co operative (recommend sling with hip/side straps) p) iii) No upper extremity strength 4 or 6 straps available 6 straps provide hip and lateral support Provides minimal hip rotation (picks up the client with hips in neutral thus reducing skin friction and shearing). Supportive for clients with uni or bilateral above knee amputations Caution use for clients with hip replacements
30 Long Seat Sling Client Criteria: Amputee (Single or bilateral and above the knee or below the knee ) Obese Tiny/frail especially ypalliative Contracted and Combative This sling goes on in bed and stays on. The mesh offers more breathability. No pressure points and no leg straps to unfold and bunch beside in chair so eliminates those pressure points. Great for log rolling in bed and raising upper body to assist in getting x ray films under people (especially in ICU's or trauma units) due to complications of rolling pt.'s with tubes. *positioning sling also works if supine lifting is required Caution use: Client with skin compromised skin integrity and therapeutic surface being used.
31 Horseshoe Sling Client Criteria: i) Unable to weight bear ii) Uncooperative/co operative iii) No upper extremity strength * Sling sizing is very important
32 Hygiene/Toileting il Sling Client Criteria: i) Unable to weight bear, but able to maintain i a seated position while being lifted ii) Co operative iii) Able to hold on with arms and keep arms placed outside of sling
33 General Sling Application Guidelines For seated slings: 1. Lean client forward and slide sling along back of chair behind the client (centre bottom of sling opening to client s tailbone and top of seat cushion). 2. Guide leg supports along outer thighs, h then bring sling up between the client s legs/thighs. 3. Cross leg straps through each other. 4. Attach sling straps to carry bar while holding onto carry bar. 5. Lift client up using the control unit. Before moving, check sling fit and strap safety (lower and correct if issues identified). 6. Complete transfer to new surface and lower client. 7. Unhook straps from carry bar. 8. Carefully guide leg straps under legs and away from thighs. 9. Lean client forward and carefully remove sling. * For general reference only. Does not supersede manufacturer or client specific instructions.
34 Application Procedure Refer to manufacturer specific instructions Options: 1. Open Leg 2. Divided Crossed Leg 3. Closed Leg
35 Positioning i i Sling Client Criteria: i) Unable to assist (dependent) OR ii) Able to partially assist it but greater than 200 lbs Used for lateral transfers, turning and boosting in bed Works well with a fixed ceiling lift and carry bar Consider compromised skin integrity, therapeutic ti surface being used.
