Absorbent article having an upstanding transverse partition

摘要

A disposable absorbent article having a transverse partition. The transverse partition is upstanding from the topsheet and presents an abrupt discontinuity out of the plane of the disposable absorbent article and obstructs fecal material deposited in the rear portion of the disposable absorbent article from migrating to the front portion of the disposable absorbent article. This obstruction minimizes soiling of the genitalia of the wearer. The disposable absorbent article may have upstanding barrier leg cuffs. The transverse partition may connect the barrier leg cuffs to form an H-shape.
