Turning patient transfer sheet TopSheet

hygieneincontinence

A combined turning device and incontinence protection TopSheet is used together with a stationary or mobile lift to avoid heavy manual handling when turning a user. TopSheet is used for incontinent, bedridden users who must be turned often. TopSheet is also an excellent aid when you need to hold a heavy user in a lateral position, for instance when assisting with personal hygiene or dressing wounds. TopSheet is also very suitable when a nervous, demented user in palliative care needs turning, as the process is calm and gentle and the load is spread over the entire body area. TopSheet is made of a super-absorbent material. The surface always feels dry to lie on, which helps prevent pressure sores. The underside has a PU-coated moisture-resistant membrane that prevents moisture from spreading further down to the sheets and mattress. TopSheet is available in different variants, with or without friction-reducing material (ULF) on the reverse, and in several sizes. Depending on the risk assessment, the different variants are to be placed on top of different types of materials. The surface is soft and yielding brushed polyester for maximum user comfort. Super-absorbent surface material absorbs body fluids. A moisture barrier on the reverse side prevents moisture from being transferred to the sheet and mattress. TopSheet consists of two parts. The lower part is easy to change.
