Cindy here, Physical Therapist with Adaptive Equipment and Caregiving corner. Today we're going to take a look at a Medline UltraLight transport chair given to us by the online medical supply company Cascade Healthcare Solutions. So, if you find this video helpful be sure to like and share on Facebook and Instagram, subscribe to our YouTube channel and check us out at AECorner.com, so let's get started!

So this is a transport chair. It's used to transport individuals similar to a wheelchair but due to the smaller wheels it must be pushed by someone else rather than self-propelled. The transport chairs are a great alternative to wheelchairs when it comes to taking someone outside the home to appointments. These chairs are smaller and lighter which makes them easier to handle when getting in and out of the car. Transport chairs aren't typically suited for long-duration sitting. So let's take a look at its features.

So this chair in particular comes in four colors: blue, red, black and silver. It weighs 15 pounds and it has a weight limit of 300 lb. Now the seat on this has a depth of 16 inches and has a width of 19 inches. It also has a seat belt for safety so you want to make sure you have that in place as needed. Now, when you go to fold this chair up you can fold the back of the handles down, I really like that about this chair. So you’re going to take these little buttons right here. You’re going to press them in. Ok? And that’s going to fold these handles down for a more compact storage. Then you take the handles here in front and you grab and you're going to pull those up that's going to pull the seat up. Then you take the bars go ahead and put them all together and the really nice thing about this chair is these handles will allow you to help mobilize this chair as if you're going to take it around to the back of your trunk or something like that. It just rolls really smoothly like that. So when you go to open the seat back up you’re going to take the chair. You push these two bars away from each other. So you’re going to flatten the chair out just like that and then you're going to take the handles you’re going to flip them back up. You want to listen for them locking into place. Okay so that's locked into place. Another nice feature about this chair. On the backside of it, it has a nice, a lot of nice little pockets here for extra things: cell phone, keys. things like that. So that's a little nice feature as well. So now let's take a look at some of the features on the lower portion of this chair.

This legrest has a foot platform that moves up and down. It also swings away just like this and it is removable. Now, when you put this back on you want to make sure that you get it in a locked position by hearing it click in just like that. Now, if you don't want to take the leg rests all the way off, they have a nice little stow and go feature which is a clip right here at the side you just pull the leg rest back and you popped into that clip just like that. They also have a cup holder and they have what they call the restaurant style armrests. This allows the chair to get closer right up underneath the table so that it allows the individual to be closer to the table when they're eating. On the backside, we have the brakes. So that is right here. They're applied by pulling back just like this on releasing just like that.

So that's a transport chair. These are a great addition to improving the ease for caregivers when taking individuals outside the home. Thanks again to Cascade Healthcare Solutions for sending us this chair for review. Be sure to check out the comment section below to a link to this chair. That's it for today from Adaptive Equipment and Caregiving Corner have a great day and don't forget if you can't do it adapt it![+] Show More

Pre Operative Bathing Routine

Before surgery, you can play an important role in your own health. [...]

Before surgery, you can play an important role in your own health. Because skin is not sterile, we need to be sure that your skin is as free of germs ...as possible before surgery. You can reduce the number of germs on your skin by carefully washing before surgery. Following these instructions will help ensure your skin is clean before surgery.

Step 1 Do not shave your legs for one week before surgery to prevent a nick or cut on your skin.

Step 2
-Shower or bathe with the Hibiclens soap the night
before your surgery and the morning of surgery.
-Apply the Hibiclens soap to the entire body from the
neck down, paying special attention to the surgical
site. Do not use near your eyes, ears or genitals.
-To promote the best lather with the Hibiclens, use a
mesh scrub or your hands. Please do not use a
washcloth.
-Wash your body gently for 5 minutes. Do not scrub
too hard.
-After the skin is lathered, do not rinse for 1 minute so
that the Hibiclens has time to produce its desired effect.

Step 3 Use a nasal swab the night before surgery and the morning of surgery. Use one nasal swab for both nostrils. Rub inside the nose in a circular motion for 5-10 seconds.

Step 4 Do not wash with regular soap once Hibiclens is used.

Step 5 After washing with Hibiclens, do not use any lotion, powder, cream or deodorant.

Step 6 After each shower with Hibiclens, wear laundered cloths.

Step 7 After your first shower with Hibiclens (Chlorhexidine), if you notice you are having any type of allergic reaction:
-Hives
-Severe skin rash
-Wheezing
-Severe dizziness
-Difficulty breathing
-Swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat
do not use the Hibiclens the morning of surgery. Alert your nurse upon arrival for surgery.

Also included in the Pre-Surgical Kit
Ensure Pre-Surgery Carbohydrate Drink, which helps recovery by reducing:
-nausea
-vomiting
-pain after surgery
-time in the hospital

Instructions:
-Drink one bottle of Ensure Pre-Surgery Carbohydrate
drink the night before surgery.
-Drink second bottle the day of surgery, finishing it
2 hours prior to your scheduled arrival time.
-Shake each bottle well before consuming
-Each bottle should be consumed quickly, in less than
5 minutes, rather than sipped over long period of time.
