What is an underpad?
The underpad is not a diaper, but a disposable sanitary product made of PE film, non-woven fabric, (fluff pulp, polymer) and other materials, mainly used for hospital surgery, gynecological examination, maternity care, child care, paralyzed patients incontinence, and women during menstruation.
During urology and obstetrics and gynecology procedures, blood, body fluids and irrigation fluids often contaminate the patient's body, and the patient's skin is kept in a moist environment for a long time, increasing the chance of discomfort and infection.
At present, ordinary cotton sheets or simple non-woven pads are commonly used in clinical practice. The disadvantage of cotton is that it has limited water absorption and blood absorption, and it is very easy to contaminate the operating bed. Moreover, repeated use increases the workload of nurses and increases the risk of infection. Although the non-woven pads sold on the market can be used for one-time use, they have less water absorption and poor air permeability, which still cannot avoid the dampness of the patient's skin.
Disposable medical underpads are indispensable medical supplies in hospitals. They are very useful, clean and hygienic. They can avoid virus infection for surgery and medical examination use to prevent cross infection.
