ProvaMed Provale Cup - Making life Easier to Swallow®
The Provale Cup 5 or 10 cc - is a Limited Flow Cup for the delivery of thin liquids. Simply by tipping the Provale Cup in a normal drinking motion, the cup delivers Small Sips™ (5cc, one teaspoon, or 10cc two teaspoons depending on Cup model). By returning the Cup to its upright position, the chamber is refilled and ready to deliver another Small Swallow. This repetitive, normal drinking motion encourages normal drinking habits and may allow for more patient independence. Available individually or by the case. A case contains five (5) cups. Replacement Lids also available. Translucent Outer Cup in either Blue/5 cc (1 tsp.) or Brown/10 cc (2 tsp.)
Features:
Quality The Cup is manufactured in an ISO/GMP FDA registered facility, meets strict quality control standards and has a registered CE Mark. Designed to look similar to a "travel mug" This design maintains patient/resident dignity and can be used in the clinical, home or outdoor setting.
Designed with Safety in Mind The Cups are color coded for safety to help insure correct fluid delivery - 5cc or 10cc. The Cups have a patented "anti suck" design to help prevent potential over delivery. The Cups have accurate delivery (5cc or 10cc) within specification. The Cup handles snap in place for security and are not to be detached after assembled. The handles are designed with a large surface area for easy patient grip. The Cup has a broad round base, not easy to tip over.
