ADULT INCONTINENCE GARMENT WITH REMOVEABLE PAD INSERT HAVING LEAKAGE PROTECTION FLAPS

摘要

An incontinence garment with a replaceable inner pad assembly has a quick-release lower front panel to aid in avoiding accidents. The lower front panel is detachable from the upper front of the garment via cooperating hook and loop or similar fasteners. A fitted, absorbent pad carried within the garment absorbs or contains waste deposited therein during times of incontinence of the wearer, and the pad can be removed and replaced in the garment without removal of the entire garment from the wearer. Impervious flaps on edges of the inner pad help prevent leakage of liquid waste from the pad and garment.
