Introducing Hurl-e® "Pocket-Size" Emesis Containers
The Hurl-e® "Pocket-Size" Emesis Container (Barf Bag) was developed specifically to meet the special requirements of paramedics, first responders and emergency room personnel. It replaces all other types of emesis containers (barf bags) that are commonly used in emergency situations. The folded Hurl-e® packet is a "pocket-size" all-purpose emesis container (barf bag) that paramedics can easily carry with them at all times, and it deploys in seconds into a large capacity emesis container (barf bag) (2 liter capacity) that can be used by coherent patients (hand held) AND impaired patients (hands free). There is nothing like the Hurl-e® on the market. In fact, we just received a utility patent for the Hurl-e® US Patent No. 7686791.
