Infection prevention commode / shower chair

Description

The Clinell Easyclean Commode (Easy Clean Commode) is an award-winning, infection-prevention commode chair designed for use in hospitals, care homes and other clinical environments. Marketed as the UK’s number one infection prevention commode, it features a unique ultra-hygienic design that can be dismantled quickly into only a small number of parts for thorough cleaning. The seat, backrest and other patient-contact components are made from smooth, durable, non-porous plastic, allowing easy wiping and minimising areas where dirt and microorganisms can accumulate. The frame is constructed from high-grade 316L stainless steel with an advanced electrochemical anti-oxidation coating for superior corrosion resistance, strength and longevity. The commode is multi-functional: it works with both pulp and plastic bedpans, can be positioned over a standard toilet, and can also be used as a shower chair. It incorporates hinged, lockable armrests, a safe and sanitary latex-free plastic seat cover that sits flush with the seat, a removable plastic bedpan rack and rotating, removable footrests. The Easyclean Commode has won the GOOD DESIGN™ Award and is supplied with a long frame warranty (10 years), helping to deliver a low total cost of ownership for clinical settings.

Usage

  • Assemble the commode according to the manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring all components (frame, seat, armrests, footrests, castors and bedpan rack) are correctly fitted and secure.
  • Before first use and between patients, clean and disinfect all plastic and metal surfaces with appropriate detergent and disinfectant products in line with local infection-prevention policies.
  • Apply brakes on the castors before assisting the patient onto or off the commode to ensure stability.
  • Use the hinged armrests and footrests to assist safe patient transfers; ensure arms are locked in the down position during use.
  • Insert the appropriate pulp or plastic bedpan into the removable bedpan rack, or position the commode over a toilet as required.
  • When used as a shower chair, ensure castors are locked during transfer and unlocked as needed for safe manoeuvring, following local safety procedures.
  • After each use, remove the bedpan and dispose of contents according to clinical waste protocols, then clean and disinfect the commode thoroughly, including frame, seat, armrests, footrests and castors.
  • Periodically inspect the frame, castors and plastic components for signs of wear, damage or corrosion and remove from service if any safety issues are identified.
  • Only trained staff should assemble, dismantle, move and use the commode with patients, following local manual-handling and infection-control guidelines.

Contraindications

  • Not suitable for use with patients whose weight exceeds the stated maximum user weight (approximately 190 kg / 30 st).
  • Should not be used on steep ramps, uneven floors or surfaces where the castors cannot be safely locked.
  • Not intended for use without appropriate supervision for patients who are at high risk of falls or who cannot sit safely without additional restraints or support, unless risk-assessed and managed by clinical staff.
  • Do not use if any structural parts (frame, castors, armrests, footrests, seat or bedpan rack) are damaged, missing or not securely fitted.

Adverse Effects

  • Risk of patient falls or injury if brakes are not applied correctly or if the commode is used on unsuitable surfaces.
  • Potential pinching, trapping or minor soft tissue injury if limbs are placed incorrectly near moving parts such as hinged arms or rotating footrests.
  • Skin pressure or discomfort if patients are seated for prolonged periods without appropriate pressure-relief measures or repositioning.
  • Infection-control risk if the commode is not dismantled and cleaned thoroughly between patients or if disinfection protocols are not followed.

Storage Conditions

  • Store in a clean, dry indoor environment when not in use.
  • Ensure the commode is cleaned and disinfected before storage, especially after use as a shower chair or commode.
  • Park the commode with castor brakes applied to prevent unintended movement.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or outdoor environments that could compromise the plastic components or protective coating on the stainless steel frame.
