AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Ergonomic Tool 2 Positioning or Repositioning on the OR Bed
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Positioning or Repositioning on the OR bed Use tool #2 to assess needs when repositioning the patient to or from the supine position while on the OR bed • There are three primary positions: • Semi-Fowler • Lateral • Lithotomy • Recommendations are given relative to patient body weight (BW)
Tool #2: Positioning and Repositioning the Patient on the OR bed to and from the Supine Position What is the Surgical position? To/From semi-Fowler Using beach chair device Start 2 A To/From Lateral 2 B To/From Lithotomy 2 C
2 A To/From semi-Fowler Using beach chair device Is the patient < 68 lb? yes (See 1 below) Manual lifting or lowering of torso (min. 3 caregivers) no Use assistive technology Proceed (min. 3 caregivers) with (See 1 and 2 below) Procedure
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Rationale Positioning and Repositioning the Patient in OR Bed (eg, semi-Fowler) • The mass of the body from the waist up is 68. 6% of body weight, plus equipment weight of 20 lb • Maximum worst-case two-handed load is 22. 2 lb per caregiver • 3 caregivers can safely transfer a patient up to 68 lb
2 B To/From Lateral Is the patient < 115 lb? yes Manual positioning approved no Use assistive technology (min. 3 caregivers) (See 1 below) (min. 4 caregivers) Proceed with Procedure
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Rationale Positioning and Repositioning the Patient in OR Bed • Lateral positioning requires push/pull forces • Assuming anesthesia professional supports the patient's head and neck then remaining mass is 91. 6% of BW • Acceptable push/pull force person = 35 lb • 3 caregivers plus anesthesia professional can safely transfer a patient weighing up to 115 lbs [(35 lbs x 3)/. 916 = 115 lbs]
2 C To/From Lithotomy Is the patient < 141 lbs? yes Manual 2 -handed lift of legs no (min. 2 caregivers [one each leg] or use assistive technology) (See 1 below) Use assistive technology Proceed (min. 3 caregivers) With (See 1 below) Procedure
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Rationale: Positioning and Repositioning the Patient in OR Bed (ie, Lithotomy) • One lower patient extremity is 15. 7% of patient’s BW • Maximum worst-case two-handed load is 22. 2 lbs. per caregiver • If two caregivers perform task, each lifting one leg using both hands, then the maximum patient weight would be 141 lb (141 x. 157 = 22. 1 lb)

AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Ergonomic Tool 3 Lifting and Holding Legs, Arms, and Head
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Ergonomic Tool 3 • Patient-weight categories t • Very Light (< 40 lb) to • Very Heavy (> 440 lb) • If weight limits are exceeded, • additional team members are recommended to help • use assistive devices
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Lifting and Holding Legs, Arms, and Head • Weight limits • One- and two-handed lifting • Endurance times for holds of respective body parts • 0, 1, 2, or 3 minutes • One or two hands
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Lifting and Holding Legs, Arms and Head • Acceptability of task is dependent on patient weight. • Table indicates whether it would be acceptable for one caregiver to lift or hold the listed body part. • Respecting these limits should minimize risk of muscle fatigue and the potential for musculoskeletal disorders
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Questions Regarding Lifting and Holding Legs, Arms, and Head § Does limb need to be raised for the entire surgical skin prep? § Does limb need to be lifted by scrubbed or unscrubbed personnel? § Is the person holding the limb strong enough to perform the task? § Is there an alternative practice that can be adopted? § Is there equipment that could be used to support the task? § Is it possible to hold a heavy limb safely without risk of injury to the nurse or patient?
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Lifting and Holding Legs, Arms, and Head • Maximum lift and hold for load limits • Normalized weight for each leg, arm, and head are calculated as a percentage of body weight (BW), where: • Lower extremity = 15. 7% BW • Upper extremity = 5. 1% BW • Head and neck = 8. 4% BW
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Lifting and Holding Legs, Arms, and Head • The maximum weight for a • one-handed lift is 11. 1 lbs • two-handed lift is 22. 2 lbs • Fatigue limits for holding • After 1 minute, muscle endurance has decreased by 48% • After 2 minutes it has decreased by 65% • After 3 minutes muscle endurance has decreased by 71%

AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Ergonomic Tool 6: Lifting and Carrying Supplies/Equipment
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Lifting and Carrying Supplies/Equipment • Manual lifting and carrying of object • physically demanding • may place the worker at substantial risk of low back pain • NIOSH has developed a lifting equation • Personnel can calculate the Recommended Weight Limit (RWL) and Lifting Index (LI) for a specified lifting task
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Lifting and Carrying Supplies/Equipment • AORN Recommendation • Limit the weight of instrument trays to 25 lb total weight • The Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) • Suggests that instrument trays weigh no more than 25 lb
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit NIOSH Lifting Index (LI) LI = Weight of Load Lifted/RWL Example Assuming the RWL for a job was 15 kg and the weight lifted was 35 kg, the LI would be: LI = 35 = 2. 3 15
Lifting Task 3, 000 ml irrigation fluid Key Lifting Index <0. 2 Sand bags 0. 3 Linen bags 0. 4 Lead aprons 0. 4 Custom sterile packs (eg, heart or spine) 0. 5 Garbage bags (full) 0. 7 Positioning devices off shelf or rack (eg, stirrups) 0. 7 Positioning devices off shelf or rack (eg, gel pads) 0. 9 Hand table (49” x 28”)-largest hand tableused infrequently 1. 2 Fluoroscopy Board (49” x 21”) 1. 2 Stirrups (2 - one in each hand) 1. 4 Wilson frame 1. 4 Irrigation containers for lithotripsy (12, 000 ml) 1. 5 Instrument pans 2. 0 No shading Level of Risk Minimal risk – Safe to lift Light shading Potential risk – Use assistive technology, as available Heavy shading Considerable risk – one person should not perform alone or weight should be reduced.
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Rationale Lifting/Carrying Supplies and Equipment • NIOSH Lifting Equation • assessed a series of typical manual lifting tasks performed by perioperative RNs • Recommended Weight Limit (RWL) • amount of weight that can be safely lifted without an increased risk of the worker developing lifting-related low back pain.
AORN Safe Patient Handling and Movement Tool Kit Rationale Lifting/ Carrying Supplies and Equipment Lifting Index (LI) Ratio of Weight to be lifted (L) divided by (LI = L/RWL) LI < 1. 0 is considered safe for most workers. LI > 1. 0 < 2. 0 is considered to have a moderate level of risk LI > 2. 0 has a significantly increased risk of low back pain
