Frequently asked questions
What is an emesis basin?
An emesis basin is a container designed to catch vomit, commonly used in hospitals and during recovery at home. Emesis is the medical term for vomiting.
Why are hospital emesis basins kidney-shaped?
The curved shape fits against the body, so a patient can hold it near their chin while lying down. The tradeoff is that they're shallow, which makes them easy to overfill or splash.
How much does a standard emesis basin hold?
A typical kidney-shaped emesis basin holds around 26 oz, which is easy to overflow during a bad stomach bug.
How is The Puke Bucket® different from a standard emesis basin?
The Puke Bucket® is deeper and larger, holding 3 liters, with side handles for a steady grip and a removable anti-splash back. It's also reusable, so there's no need to keep restocking disposable basins.
