Heavy Incontinence > Disposable Underpads

Nancy has found the Tranquility® Peach Sheet Underpad to have the best capacity of all the underpads she has used. She says it can hold more than a quart of liquid. This is good to know, as her mother-in-law has decided to stay a bit longer than planned! And she is a bit more incontinent at night than previously let on. This product delivers Mom with very good skin dryness, it gets rid of odors, prevents bacteria from growing and keeps the pH neutral. There are 4 tape tabs which makes it easy to position the large area of protection (almost 5 feet).  It covers mattresses and chairs and wheelchairs quite handily. For those with a potential for skin issues such as tears and blisters, it helps keep urine away. (Latex-Free)

 

 

The Attends® Night Preserver® Underpads help to keep chairs and mattresses dry. They help skin to stay healthy. "And did I mention that they are DISPOSABLE?!” says Betty, with a smile on her face. She uses them in the hospital she works in, and in the nursing facility she moonlights at every other weekend. The last thing Betty wants to do at home is to wash cloth underpads! Betty likes that the additional absorbent polymers just suck up liquid...like that! The patented cellulose fibers are just great for those heavy wetters she's used to. This helps her night-shift patients sleep longer and wake up less groggy. It helps keep her Mom comfortable at home as well. The soft surface on top feels just like cloth to Betty, and it seems to assure healthier skin as well. Of course, the leak-proof backing protects Mom's bed from bodily liquids should an adult diaper leak. Betty finds these just perfect for everyday use, especially in bed. (So does Mom.)

 

 

Prevail® High Performance Fluff Underpads provide superior protection for wheelchairs, beds and, well, everything. Beverly finds them easy to apply because of the "C" wing folds. They open up easily right out of the bag. They are thick. The way they are constructed helps keep the top sheet from pulling apart from the rest of the underpad. It prevents clumping. They stay put, too. All of this keeps Bev's patients comfortable through the night. Beverly likes this too because it leaves less wrinkles on her home care patients skin. It might not seem important, but the facings are made from a material which is naturally fire retardant. It may sound unimportant. That's until something goes wrong, and Beverly still has bad memories of that house fire where she managed to get Mrs. Z out just in the nick of time. They are skin friendly with no plastic edges. (Latex-free.)

 

Prevail® Super Absorbent Underpads provide Jackie the best protection for her bed linens, her furniture, and even her wheelchair. Because they are now come in various absorbencies and sizes, Prevail® Super Absorbent Underpads add comfort and keep Jackie's skin healthy. All Prevail® Underpads feature an "Integra Mat". It's a uniquely bonded construction, which helps keep the layers from separating and bunching up. Jackie sleeps better with this feature. All of Prevail® Underpads are comfy, yet they are durable. The fabric-like top sheet has no plastic touching the skin. This keeps Jackie from getting those awful blisters. (Latex-free)

 

Provide® Premium Underpads feature a superabsorbent polymer that helps to improve absorbency for even greater security and skin dryness. Judith uses these to protect bed linens, furniture, and to especially to assist her with repositioning bedridden individuals in her care. They absorb leaks, decrease smelly odors, and keep her dry with up to 50% greater capacity than standard underpads. Judith has found the quilted mat provides better fluid dispersion. The interior liner is soft, so it never irritates her patient's skin. This is a biggie to Judith. When used with an adult diaper, the outer barrier, a polyethylene layer with sealed edges, ensures protection from leaks. (Latex-free)  *This product is not available with discrete packaging.

 

Sheena likes the TENA® SecureTuck™ Underpads. They're designed to completely cover her mattress in her bedroom in order to absorb leaks, reduce any annoying odors and keep her dry. This helps keep her bed linens (and her chair too) finally protected from her body fluids as her "accidents” have been more frequently since starting on a new water pill. The TENA® SecureTuck™ Underpads have a polyethylene layer with sealed edges to ensure better protection from leaks. The highly absorbent material is evenly distributed throughout the core. This is very comfortable for Sheena. Best of all, for Sheena, they have wings that tuck under the mattress. These pads stay in place. When she and her mom clean up in the morning, there is now less of a mess than with other underpads. Super Absorbent Polymers (SAP) help these stationary underpads absorb more, keep her safe from leaks and keep her skin dry again.

 

 

Paul likes how the TENA® SecureTuck™ Underpads really fit over his mattress. "These babies sure to stop leaks!" he enthusiastically shares. They decrease odor and keep beds dry. TENA® SecureTuck™ Underpads help keep everything protected from bodily fluids from "accidents.” The TENA® SecureTuck™ Underpads have a polyethylene layer.  Because of its sealed edges beds are better protected. SAP is evenly distributed throughout the fluff for better dispersion. Best of all, for Paul and for his caretaker, Uncle Charlie, these underpads have wings that tuck completely under the mattress, ensuring the pad stays in place, and Uncle Charlie gets some sleep now.

Janice used TENA® Underpads to protect chairs, beds and wheelchairs for years. They made turning and positioning residents at the nursing home much easier than those cheapo cheapo underpads they used to buy there. With all sorts of sizes and absorbencies available, they all helped soak up sorts of leaks, helped decrease bad odors, and helped to keep residents dry. That was important then. But now that Janice is home most of the time with both Mom and Dad, it matters even more. Now it’s the quilting that provides better liquid control, and its softness next to their skin that matters. Neither of her aging parents have any type of skin issues now, nor is that is a concern to her anymore. The back is polyethylene and that plastic never touches their skin with TENA® Underpads. And that is good. There are several names, sizes and absorbencies including Harmonie® Extra and Harmonie® Ultra Plus which both depend upon SAP (superabsorbent polymer) that improves absorbency for even less leaks and drier skin. (Latex-free) Product # SCT361, SCT365, & SCT367

 

 

Tuckables® Drawsheets are soft. They feel like cloth. There's no plastic on top, so plastic doesn't come into contact with Scotty's patients at the local home. His patients always have healthier skin. He makes sure of that! A Super Absorbent Polymer just grabs the fluid and locks it away from his patients' skin and there's always less odor with Tuckables® Drawsheets. The tuckable wings keep the underpad from moving all over the bed when patients are having a rough night sleep. They never bunch, so his patients are always a little bit quieter as they are a bit more comfortable, too. Scotty's patients are mostly kids...teens and younger. Some are older, but all are heavy wetters with lots of cognitive issues. So he wants to make sure they get their sleep and that their skin stays safe from fluid.

Janet used to use Wings Maxima™ Underpads at the community hospital before taking a leave to care for Mom across town. You see, Dad died last unexpectedly month and the rest of the family decided Jan would be best to care for Mom, while she finishes out her time on this good earth. Janet has used these under pads with a non-woven topsheet, diamond-embossed and polypropylene backing before, and they are just fine. The super-absorbent polymers and odor stopping agents provide maximum incontinence protection and help to neutralize odors. That’s important for Mom’s dignity as friends and family come by to pay their respects. They are just perfect for nighttime use.

While caring for Mom, Janet was too often just too busy to get to her own apartment in time to take Maxie out for his twice a day walk in the park. So, while Jan is away at Mom's, Maxie sleeps very happily in his refuge, his training crate. And you should know that Mom's Wings Maxima™ Underpads have saved the day on more than one occasion. The odor control is a big plus for Maxie and for Jan, as well.

(These underpads have a beige backsheet, which matches Jan's decor better than those blue ones do.)
