About the Opera® Toileting High Extensor Sling

The Opera® Toileting High Extensor Sling has a higher back section than most toileting slings. This provides more support and enables patients to position their arms outside the sling for maximum comfort. One single loop connects the shoulder and waist areas of the sling to ease fitting. The sling is attached to hoists with a loop fixing.
