  -> thank you, Rachel!
neutral  Gabrielle Leyden: In other circumstances, it's a bedpan (kidney-shaped, of course, which explains the name (haricot = kidney bean))

  -> a bedpan is used for urinary and fecal discharge in bedridden persones; definitely it is not the case here; try a search on the google about kidney tray/dish/basin and you'll see I am right

emesis basin


Explanation:
Another possibility, depending on your target reader.... This is the term used on the US west coast in hospitals. It has many possible uses, though is commonly used at the patient's bedside, as the name suggests (though not always for emesis).
