Product Description:

Underpads, commonly known as chux, are disposable protective pads designed to safeguard beds, chairs, and other surfaces from incontinence leaks. These pads offer a reliable barrier against moisture, helping to maintain cleanliness and protect furniture and bedding from damage. Ideal for home use or in healthcare settings, underpads are a practical solution for managing incontinence and ensuring a hygienic environment.

Features:

• High Absorbency: Equipped with an absorbent core that quickly captures and locks away moisture, underpads help prevent leaks and keep surfaces dry.
• Waterproof Backing: A waterproof layer on the underside of the pad protects furniture, bedding, and other surfaces from moisture damage.
• Disposable: Designed for single-use, these underpads are convenient and easy to dispose of after use, promoting hygiene and reducing cleanup.
• Various Sizes: Available in multiple sizes to suit different needs, from small pads for chairs to larger pads for beds.
• Soft, Comfortable Surface: The top layer is soft and comfortable, ensuring that users are not irritated by the pad, even during extended use.
• Convenient Packaging: Typically available in packs or rolls, making it easy to store and access the pads as needed.

How to Use:

1. Preparation:

   • Ensure you have a clean surface ready where the underpad will be placed.
   • Remove the underpad from its packaging, handling it by the edges to avoid contaminating the surface.

2. Placing the Underpad:

   • Position the underpad on the desired surface, such as a bed, chair, or other furniture.
   • Ensure the waterproof backing is facing down to protect the surface from moisture.
   • Smooth out the pad to remove any wrinkles or folds, ensuring it lies flat for optimal protection.

3. Using the Underpad:

   • The underpad will absorb any incontinence leaks, keeping the underlying surface dry.
   • Regularly check the pad to ensure it remains effective and replace it as needed.

4. Removing and Disposing of the Underpad:

   • Once the pad is soiled or has reached its capacity, carefully remove it from the surface.
   • Roll up the used pad, if possible, to contain any moisture, and dispose of it in a trash bin. Do not flush it down the toilet.
   • Wash your hands thoroughly after disposal.

5. Additional Tips:

   • Store underpads in a cool, dry place to maintain their effectiveness and hygiene.
   • Keep a supply of underpads on hand to ensure you’re prepared for any incontinence needs that arise.
