3.2.2 Instructions for lifting patient
Phase I – Preparation. In this phase, the patient should stay on the footplate and put his feet in
the special footrests with the velcro fastening. Then stabilize your feet and legs under your knees
by using the velcro belt on the foot- and leg support. Make sure that the feet and legs are firmly
touching the pillow from the foot- and leg support. Fasten the thorax belt with the four straps to
the patient hoist.
Phase II- Lifting. Use the manual control slowly to lift the patient up. The patient must hold the
handgrips during lifting.
Phase III – Stabilization. In the last step after lifting to the vertical position, the patient is stabilized
by thorax belts. Thorax belts are mounted on both sides of the thorax support. Afterwards you can
remove the vest. To complete stabilization you should use the waist belt which stabilizes the hip
and trunk of the cross section. In this way, the patient is fully protected in four support points: feet,
knees, hips and thorax.
