The design of the OriginalSling allows the patient to hold the arms either inside or outside the sling.
Liko OriginalSling comes in six different sizes (XS - XL). It is important to choose the correct size to achieve the highest level of comfort and safety for the patient. A sling which is too large increases the risk of the patient's sliding out of it, while one which is too small will be tight-fitting in the groin and cause discomfort.
Note that size Small is for children, while Medium-Slim fits slim adults.
Liko OriginalSling is available in different fabrics. Since the sling is normally not left in the chair/bed after completed transfer, we recommend the version in polyester, which is very pliable to work with and durable. Easy to apply and remove.
Liko OriginalSling is also available in cotton and in polyester net for those who leave the sling in the chair after transfer and who want an airier alternative.
For bathing; showering and swimming pools, there is a plastic-coated net version, which allows water to pass through; it can be wiped off.
Liko OriginalSling has several versions of leg supports:
Liko OriginalSling is available in 36 standard versions; others may be specially ordered.
Size Small is for children, while Medium-Slim fits slim adults.
More information can be found in the Instruction Guide.
As an alternative to OriginalSling, we recommend UniversalSling mod 00, which has a somewhat higher back support.
