Sputum Cup

Description

Sputum Cup

The sputum cup collects sputum and other secretions at the bedside. A lid keeps the contents covered between uses, which helps with infection control.

Size of the sputum cup

It measures 100 x 50 mm. Besides, that suits a patient’s bedside table. Meanwhile, it holds enough for several uses before emptying.

Why steel

Steel goes through heat cleaning and disinfection without damage. As a result, staff can reuse it safely. It also does not crack like plastic.

Typical uses

Wards and respiratory clinics use it most. For example, patients with chest infections use it at the bedside. It also suits care homes.

Infection control

Keep the lid closed between uses. Then empty and clean the cup often. Also, wear gloves when handling it.

Emptying and cleaning

Empty the cup into the sluice. Next, rinse and wash it with detergent. Finally, disinfect and dry it before returning it.

Labelling

Mark each cup for one patient. Moreover, that avoids mix-ups. In addition, keep clean cups apart from used ones.

The support on each cup

Any cup undergoes a personal once-over by our Atlanta team before it ships. Bedside cups take daily knocks, so this one has three years against manufacturing defects. Its lid shares that cover. For details on the steel in surgical tools, read ASTM F899. Need a formal quote? Contact us today. For order basics, open our help page. You might pair it with our Methot cotton receptacle.
