This low-profile fracture bed pan is designed for patients who cannot lift their hips for a standard bed pan — including those with hip fractures, post-surgical restrictions, or significant mobility limitations. The slim, tapered profile slides easily under the patient with minimal repositioning, while the loop handle allows caregivers to position and remove the pan hygienically and with confidence.
Durable blue plastic construction is fully autoclavable for repeated sterilization and long-term reuse in hospital, nursing home, and home care settings. Sold unboxed without retail packaging.
What is a fracture pan and how is it different from a standard bed pan?
A fracture pan has a low, tapered profile on one end that allows it to slide under a patient without requiring them to lift their hips. Standard bed pans require the patient to raise their hips for placement. Fracture pans are used when hip lifting is not possible due to fractures, surgery, paralysis, or severe mobility limitations.
How do I position the fracture pan under a patient?
Slide the thin, tapered end of the pan under the patient’s buttocks from the side or with a gentle roll. The loop handle gives the caregiver a secure grip for controlled placement and removal. Always follow your facility’s patient handling protocols or consult a healthcare professional for proper technique.
Is this pan autoclavable?
Yes. The blue plastic construction is fully autoclavable, allowing it to be sterilized using high-pressure steam between uses. This makes it safe and cost-effective for repeated use in clinical environments.
Can this be used at home?
Yes. While commonly used in hospitals and nursing facilities, this fracture pan is equally suitable for home health care. For home use, thorough cleaning with soap and water or a household disinfectant after each use is typically sufficient in place of autoclave sterilization.
