Intended purpose

SatinSheet 4Direction is a DrawSheet for use with BaseSheet (SatinSheet BaseSheet 2Direction). The SatinSheet system is used for repositioning and turn a user in bed.

Intended environment
Acute care, Long-term care, Home care

Practical handling

Positioning

Position SatinSheet BaseSheet with the low-friction material (satin) uppermost in the middle of the bed (Illustrations).
If necessary, a draw sheet can be laid on SatinSheet.
All SatinSheet models have a “this side up” label indicating which side of the sheet should face upwards in the bed.
An information label, describing the correct use of the product, is sewn into all SatinSheet models/products.
Place SatinSheet 4Direction on BaseSheet (satin against satin).
Before locking the glide system under the mattress, any unevenness/wrinkles should be smoothed to avoid decubitus. The carers pull simultaneously and diagonally from both sides.

Use

Turning with SatinSheet 4Direction (Illustrations 1-3)
Always use SatinSheet 4Direction with one of the SatinSheet models.
The back of SatinSheet 4Direction is made of a low-friction material. It is ideal for use with bariatric users. The procedure for turning with SatinSheet 4Direction is identical with the procedure for turning with SatinSheet and a draw sheet.
To turn a user in bed: Grasp the draw sheet at hips and shoulders. To achieve a better ergonomic grip, the carer should grasp as much fabric as possible.

Always work with flat wrists and weight transference.
Turning with SatinSheet can also be done by two carers. The carers work together. One carer helps pull on SatinSheet while the other carer pulls down on the mattress at the level of the user’s hips and shoulders, pushing gently.
If using Satinsheet 4Direction with handles you can turn the user with a hoist. Place the webbing handles on the sling bar hooks and slowly turn the user (Illustrations 4+5). Place a positioning pillow or wedge to support the user’s back and slowly lower the hoist again. Remove the handles from the sling bar hooks. Raise the guard rails if required.

Turn the user.
To lock the glide system after turning: Fold the excess material from DrawSheet under the mattress on both sides of the bed.

Moving the user higher up in the bed (Illustration 6)
To move the user higher up in the bed, grasp SatinSheet 4Direction at both sides of the user’s shoulders. Standing with one foot forward, the carer pulls, using weight transference.

Sitting up in bed with SatinSheet 4Direction (Illustrations 7+8)
To prevent the user sliding down in the bed when sitting up, part of SatinSheet 4Direction can be folded in under the user. Then fold SatinSheet in under the mattress, although only at the hips. The bed headboard can then be raised. SatinSheet functions here as a brake.

Prone positioning
Remove the head-end of the bed. If the user is connected to a ventilator or other life saving machines, turn the user towards the equipment. Place the hand of the user under the hip. If needed add 2-3 pillows or positioning cushions used on top of the users body. Place a SatinSheet4Direction on the pillows with the satin facing upwards, starting at the head end – fold the 4Direction away from the users head. Tug the SatinSheet4Direction top around the user like a cocoon.

Fold the lower 4Direction away from the users head (satin against satin)
One carer secures the head of the user and one carer on each side to support the user.
Move the user to the opposite side to where the user is turned. Place the webbing handles from the SatinSheet4Direction which the user lay on in the sling bar hooks and slowly turn the user to almost 90° (Illustrations 9) Push and pull in the SatinSheet4direction, to secure the rotation is a bit of center. When user is on the side one carer tug the SatinSheet4Direction on the bed under the user to be able to remove it when
the user is turned to prone.Same carer support the user by having the hands on the shoulder. Continue to turn the user until the user is in a proned position. Lower the hoist again. Remove the handles from the sling bar hooks and remove the SatinSheet4Direction. Unfold the 4Direction under the users head. If nesseccary move the user to the center of the bed. Secure that the user is correct positioned. (illustration 10) Raise the bed rails if required. Turn to supine positioning the same way.
