My dad (Navy medic and anesthesiologist) and my mom (ER/surgical nurse) both called it an emesis basin. HOWEVER.

An emesis basin isn't really used for vomiting - a bigger, more box-like basin is usually used for that. A so-called kidney dish gets its shape so that the curved side can be pressed against a patient in order to catch fluid or matter when a wound is being washed/debried/dressed.

Here's more info. :)
