Description
The Single Patient Use SallyTube ® is made from a very slippery slide sheet material that is sewn into a tube.
They are particularly ideal for the following applications where a lateral transfer is required:
- Emergency Services Stretcher < > Bed
- Theater Table < > Bed
- X-ray Table < > Bed
- Patient Transport Stretcher < > Bed
Features
- A SallyTube ® is often less than the cost of washing reusable slide sheets and tubes
- Improved manual handling – no excuses for staff not to have one because reusable slide sheets have not been returned from the laundry
- Central dispenser system – make it easy for staff to always have access to a SallyTube ®
- Consistent slip quality for staff (unlike reusable slide sheets returned from the laundry)
- Avoid purchasing new reusable slide sheets and then receiving old sheets from the laundry
- When used in the lateral transfer position, patients can move 30cm up the bed, otherwise the SallyTube ® can be rotated 90 degrees for up the bed manoeuvres.
- Bright yellow polyester taffeta for easy identification, with silicone coating on the inside of the tube – very slippery
- Reduced infection risks associated with cross-contamination when using reusable slide sheets
- Radiolucent - can be used for x-rays / CT scans
- Each SallyTube ® sealed in a poly bag with label for improved infection control
- Can be disposed of after single patient use (used on one patient for the duration of their stay)
- Weight capacity: 360kg when used with a draw sheet
- Recyclable in general use
