Collection: HOSPITAL HOLLOWARE
Hospital hollowware refers to a collection of medical and surgical instruments and equipment made of metal, typically stainless steel, that are designed with hollow sections or containers. These items are primarily used in hospitals and healthcare settings for a variety of functions, including holding, storing, or mixing fluids, medications, or surgical materials. The term "hollowware" generally includes containers that can be sterilized and reused.
Some common types of hospital hollowware include:
-
Bedpans: Used for patients who are bedridden and unable to use a toilet. They are designed to collect urine and feces.
-
Urinals: Devices used to collect urine, typically for male patients who are immobile or need assistance.
-
Kidney Trays: Shaped trays used during surgical procedures or examinations to hold small medical instruments, dressings, or to collect bodily fluids.
-
Basin Sets: Includes various basins, like kidney basins, used for washing or holding items like sterile dressings, surgical instruments, or fluids during procedures.
-
Gallipots: Small, shallow, cylindrical containers used to hold medications, liquids, or ointments for easy access during medical procedures.
-
Surgical Bowls and Dishes: Used for mixing medications or other materials during surgical or medical procedures.
-
Instrument Trays: Flat trays designed to hold medical instruments, ensuring they are organized and sterile when needed during procedures.
Hospital hollowware is essential for maintaining cleanliness, hygiene, and efficiency in medical environments. Since they are often exposed to bodily fluids or require sterilization, these items are made from materials like stainless steel or other non-corrosive metals that can withstand repeated cleaning and sterilization processes.
