A waste-containment garment comprising a relatively narrow, disposable, absorbent body having elasticized leg cuffs, and reuseable side-bridging fastener fitments for securing the absorbent body on a wearer. The absorbent body comprises an absorbent core and a liquid impervious backsheet. Preferably, it also includes a liquid pervious, hydrophobic topsheet. The absorbent body has waistband regions having total widths of less than the midsection girths of intended users and, preferably, the absorbent core has front and back waistband regions which have individual widths of from about fifteen to about forty-five percent of the midsection girths of intended users or, nominally, about one quarter of the midsection girth of an average size intended wearer. The absorbent body is so elasticized along its longitudinal side edges that, when properly secured on a wearer through the use of the reuseable side-bridging fastener fitments, the elasticized side edges are sufficiently tensioned to form liquid seals or leg cuffs along upper thigh regions of the wearer: particularly, along the inner spans of the upper thigh regions of the wearer. The insert may be provided with reinforcing means such as grommets on its corners to facilitate fastening it with, for example, snap-fastener type fastener fitments. |
