A bedpan, available in both metallic and plastic versions, is a medical device used by patients who are confined to bed and unable to use a regular toilet.
- Metallic bedpans are durable, easy to sterilize, and often used in hospitals for patients who require frequent use.
- Plastic bedpans are lightweight, more comfortable for patients, and disposable or reusable depending on the type.
Both types are designed to collect urine and feces and are commonly used in hospitals, nursing homes, and home care settings for bedridden patients or those with limited mobility. They help ensure patient hygiene and comfort while maintaining cleanliness in care environments.
